from the FAQ

1.2) What other models have been produced on the J-body platform?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
1982 Pontiac J2000 (no dash, slash, hyphen, space, or anything)
1983 Pontiac 2000 and 2000 Sunbird Convertible
1984 Pontiac 2000 Sunbird
1985-94 Pontiac Sunbird
1982-88 Oldsmobile Firenza
1982-89 Buick SkyHawk
1982 Cimarron by Cadillac, 1983-88 Cadillac Cimarron
1982-94 Chevrolet Cavalier (was almost called Corsair!)

An interesting side note about the J-body:
Cavalier and 2000 Sunbird convertibles first appeared in 1983 in
quantities limited to 627 units each produced by American Sunroof in
Michigan. No other division ever released a J-body convertible.

It is also an interesting note (no offense to Cimmaron fans) that the
Cimmaron is considered the WORST J-car of the series, based upon its
styling compared to the Cavalier and its comparatively exorbitant price.

No. The Cobalt and *G5* are built on the Delta platform.

The *G6* is built on the Epsilon platform.

You can edit and resize easily in MS Paint. Donnie's photos got ripped off by people awhile ago and they're circulating. It bothers him, but I'm not one to tell you what to do.
