Oh. I'm disappointed now. I thought from the title there would be one of those quiz things where I could type in the car I bought and have it predict who I will vote for.

I miss my Bodum vacuum pot a lot. The carafe began taking itself apart internally.

Oh neat. Dark green with gold accents, like the early 90s. Because now Veronica Mars would drive a truck.

Yep, tired driving is really bad, as you can't tell how tired you are. I was at school at UT Austin back in the 90s and headed home for Thanksgiving. My best friend was flying into DFW and we would drive together to our hometown in Oklahoma, about 8 hours total from Austin.

Volkswagen Type 147, affectionately known as the Fridolin.

Yes indeed! I love those too, but it's less retro and more weird. Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Nissan Figaro. Forgotten now because no one would believe that Nissan could produce anything fun and cheerfully silly.

Dropped to as low as $3.34 in the east SFO Bay Area. That's pretty low for here.

When did Lee Iacocca go back to Ford?

But don't we hear "Ford will spend $$ to revive Lincoln" about once every 3 weeks? And what we actually get is more and more carefully but incompletely lincolnized Fords like MKC.

Beta-based, but drivetrain moved to mid-rear, in the same manner Fiero would use Citation's basics years later.

Don't forget the 'other' X 1/9, the Lancia Montecarlo, aka Scorpion

Lancia Beta coupe and Fiat 124 coupe. Completely unrelated, but uncanny similarity in greenhouse and rear 2/3 view

Self explanatory - Nissan S Cargo

Agreed. I don't see anything particularly admirable about this, and the shrug he gives after climbing out - as if he had no idea why the engine quit working - just ices the proverbial cake.

See what happens when you let the gays marry? THANKS OBAMA

Nice! I agree about Jalop-Toyland crossovers. I keep a few friends on my office desk, too

You're very right, and also true for Dodge and even a proposal for DeSoto. Had the infamous "Chevy is downsizing" rumor not been believed, I think the '62s would have done very well. The interiors were asymmetrical, even in production, but the prototypes were WILD.
