Ginetta went up and down the Bolwell Scale, too.

You forgot the craziest but in a kinky way best way to do a dashboard: Steel hand- painted to look like wood. Facel Vega sneers at all your weak  plasticky, woody attempts and farts in your general direction.

I think Big & Rich nailed it pretty much.

There used to be a fad amongst tuners to transform the 911 into something slant- nose- ish and incorporate 928 pop- up headlights. That thing is sorely lacking the contemporary Testarossa slats, though.

It´s all been done, I mean, slamming some truck, fettling its engine and chintzing it up with some ridiculous wings and skirts.

So the slowest selling cars mostly are either models on their way out, or heinously expensive luxo- barges? Big deal, then. Where´s Bugatti on that list, then? I bet they couldn´t flog but a handful.

Neutral:

“Still, there was very little humor about Byton...”

I see all your bloat, clutter and chrome, and I fart in your general direction. No- one wore wore it better than the classic Mini with a mantelpiece for a dashboard with a clock in the middle of it.

So they´re poaching their PR staff Audi, now?

Besides the Sedanocalypse there´s the Minivanocalypse. Real practicality on a small footprint is minivan territory, but nowadays every housewife prefers the “rugged” looks and adventurous feel of those pesky SUVs, CUVs etc. that usually offer nothing a minivan hadn´t been better at.

FWIW:

The Koenig Specials Testarossa is the most ironic tuner car of its era. That was the time when everything from SEC Benzes, Porsches and down to humble Golfs and Polos got a Testarossa Slat treatment... and Koenig went the other way, de- slatted the whole thing, and basically created the F40 shape before its inception.

Now I know what the Youabian reminded me of...

This “ingenious” new- fangled trashcan thing in decades past would have been called an ashtray. You know, with a lid, and removable, in order to tip out its contents. Maybe the elderly in the Jalopnik commentariat remember those?

Realyy, I´d like a Barbour or barbour- style jacket just for the looks and theior sturdiness, not in order to give myself the air of a badass biker dude. But they are just prohibitively expensive.

Pretty sure that´s an Opel, dude.

That thing´s got nothing on Gordon Murray´s OX

Best thing to use a Rotary for. It has revs, but little torque which in a standard transaxle setup needs to make it rev, which in turn makes it fuel inefficient.

Now just try and slap a PISA Jalapeno bodykit onto this.
