That's the first thing I thought too, but didn't want to post it.

Looks great. Now gimme a BRZ turbo.

Show it in baby blue. From the rear. Because that's all I'll ever see is a blue one going 10mph below the speeding limit, in front of me, in the passing lane. Man, I hope the new one shakes the "most clueless buyer/driver award" stigma.

Nothing has pop up headlights anymore, pedestrian safety standards.

The price adjusted for inflation has been virtually identical since 89.

From rebadged Daewoo Kalos EPA butter to built in Michigan class contender. Neat.

It's been the same price since '89 (inflation adjusted.) It's kept the same jinba ittai despite changing safety, economy, and consumer demands. I'd say that's pretty consistent.

Do you miss every joke?

As much as we make fun of them, they do exactly what they were designed to do very well. While introducing relatively new tech to the masses. And the competitors that have tried to compete: Volt, 2g Insight, C-Max haven't even registered on buyers radars. Pretty impressive.

I chortled.

From inexpensive, small, light, and fun roadster to... oh wait. It's still an inexpensive, small, light, and fun roadster. Nevermind.

From beta testing curiosity to class benchmark.

Well, you convinced me.

Real men don't run from the cold.

The 1932 Stout Scarab was too far ahead of it's time. Basically the precursor to the modern minivan, it had a full width body instead of running boards /narrow body of other cars at the time. The seating was re-configurable. Independent suspension on coil springs, when everything else was rigid axle on leaf…

I saw one today on I-75 in the crazy snowstorm we were having. Seriously? Dude had balls. Looked like a wild ride.

Scrolling, scrolling, NOBODY has posted the Dymaxion yet! Woo!

GM: "Ahh, screw it."

Get better quick!

The Gen 1 Insight was groundbreaking and innovative.
