Nissan dealer here had a 1980s Nissan Patrol in the new car showroom window. I’m pretty sure it was this one here: https://www.classic.com/a/bring-a-trailer-auctions-JknXEWB/lots/1984-nissan-patrol-4-speed-45Pokep/

Pennsylvania? My dad and I used to walk around car lots on Sundays specifically for that reason.

The vertical slats on Subaru WRC cars were so unique. I always assumed it was to add side-to-side resistance to prevent fishtailing, but I really don’t know. It’s an iconic look though.

So, a Chevy Avalanche then?

A dealer once tried to pull the “thicker steel” line on my dad decades ago, when he was asking why a Mercury Sable was more expensive than the comparable Ford Taurus. Thankfully my dad didn’t fall for it and went with a first-gen Subaru Outback instead.

Aw, dangit! Me too now......

Not a slideshow, AND you chose my entry? What is this weird feeling in my chest....... pride? Hope? Less shame?

Melted bar of soap styling, Kermit the Frog headlights, no sense of proportion or balance....... yech

Calm down there internet tough-guy.

Henry Ford once said of the Model T, “They can have any color they want, as long as it’s black!”

Its about time Asian automakers started going retro with their own designs. The American Big Three (er, whatever that means nowadays) has been selling on retro winga-dinga styling like the Challenger and Mustang for a while now. The nostalgia for the Asian wedge sportscars of the 80s is real, I’m glad someone is…

Wait, the 2 tone one is MORE expensive?! It reminds me of an economy car from the 90s with black plastic bumpers.

So I assume its called “Money Shifting” because doing it causes money to shift from your bank account to your mechanic?

Slight nitpick with slide number 7, that’s actually NOT the real Asimo. That’s a statue of an Asimo in a little scene set up on the Disneyland Autopia.

Yeah, call it a hatchback or a wagon or a “5-door sportback active lifestyle activity vehicle,” I don’t really care. It’s a nice looking car. The Hyundai version gives me some strong “enlarged VW Golf” vibes, but the Kia is a cooler design overall IMHO.

I really like the Kia EV6, especially in the GT-line trim. They can call it a CUV all they want, but that’s a RWD wagon and I’m here for it.

Remember when James May chose a stripped down track-spec Aston Martin for a US road trip? Clarkson and Hammond chose nice GT cars, but what was Captain Slow even thinking?! (ok, sure the show was basically scripted, but it was still hilarious)

And they should have just called it the Neon!

I’m just glad they got my name right!

Low power, quality control issues, embroiled in scandal. If it wasn’t for Back to the Future, barely anyone would have remembered that the Delorean existed.
