...which Buick introduced in 1953 as a 50th anniversary ultra top of the line model model (it was a modified Roadmaster with genuine wire wheels), then it has _really_ dropped.
As Saabio mentioned, the Thunderbird took a similar downward turn although the original high-end 'Bird had a long run.
The Nova model has always been a low-end car for Chevrolet (originally a trim package for the Chevy II in the 60's). Some have been better than others, though!
