The Opel Vectra CDTI I rented in Germany a few years ago surprised me with its 140 MPH top speed on the Autobahn, and of course it sipped fuel so it was easily the best car I ever rented there.

My first car back in 1978 was an Aurora Turquoise '64 Rambler Classic 660 sedan with the OHV straight-six, "Flash-O-Matic" slushbox and the "Weather-Eye" climate control (aka, heater). It was purchased at Larry Brink Motors in Mill Valley, CA and as I recall, that was also a Rambler-only dealership.
And just for flavor: Jowett Jupiter!
I'm in love...
