Since the obvious ones are mentioned already, here is the Citroen Coccinelle. A lightweight (<400kg), fwd, 2CV-powered sedan to fit between the 2CV and DS that would be capable of working on modern (1950s) highways, which the Deux Chevaux did not.

That’s kinda what I figured. Though it could also refer to a more generic definition of the word ‘stance’, simply describing the way a car sits, not specifically the hard parking, stretched tires, cambered wheels, scrape-on-a-leaf crowd.

Despite the name, Stanceworks isn’t all about the stance culture. There is some good writing and excellent photography focusing on other segments of car culture as well. Be open-minded and check it out sometime. You won’t like everything you see but they do some good work.

Oppositelock (Jalopnik’s reader forum) would happily take all the writing about aussie cars you can manage. I’ve made you an author, let me know if you need any help.

That was Patrick, wasn’t it?

Why do you have pictures of two very different inferiors? The first is very clearly Mazda based with a Scion logo on the wheel:

Maniacs!

Ford sold their stake in Volvo a couple of years ago.

Lincoln has very clearly been on the back burner since the financial crisis. Operating the way they have has kept them alive but the brand is in desperate need of something more exciting. With Ford's lineup in great shape, having made a great recovery, maybe Lincoln will take some priority now.

Not much, and that's the problem - Lincoln needs to be more than just leather and a new badge on current Ford products.

That's quite alright. I've got a reasonable idea of how I want to mount them if I decide to buy a set of lights. Excellent photos.
