Wasn't Lutz responsible for the Dodge Viper, The Ford Explorer, BMW 3 Series, and the Chevy Volt? He seems like he has a lot of wins as well. American cars are a reflection of their culture: Singular pursuit of happiness and freedom yada yada (along those lines).
We got Mustang, Camaro(Lutz had a hand in that), Jeep etc. They all don't compete with Toyota for quality partially because the culture drives the companies and that eventually drives car design and manufacturing. Tourists often rent these cars when visiting the US because they are one representation of the country's soul.
