now if only Dodge would re-release the Classic Dart.

I wish we could get the euro models with the Diesel engines in the US, they get nearly twice the fuel economy.
Inventor William Thomas told KHOU that the battery inside only last about three months, but it can be re-charged with a backup cable plugged into the cigarette lighter. Although that sounds a bit weird, as most people don't change their wheels and tires every three months, so you'll basically be plugging your wheels…
It's definitely something i've thought about. Including the premise of what if John Delorean had succeeded Preston after his passing. What other market segments would they venture into and so on.
I have my doubts on this one. They've not aged nearly as nice as the RX-7, Supra, or even the 300zx. Even at the time, they seemed bloated by comparison in styling.
It's also interesting to point out. All of the cars that were produced, not just the Tin Goose, were pre-production prototypes (mules) each with slight variations, Transmission, Wheelbase, Center Light Mechanics, even where the gas cap is located (front left fender, or hiding behind a flip out rear fender vent).
There were far too many G-Bodies in total to lament the one or two that didn't get GM's full love.
Please tell me they'll sell this engine in crate form...
As big a fan of Daniel Simon's work as I am, this is by far my least favorite design he's been involved with. It looks dated and uninspired, no matter how fluid and aerodynamic it is, it's just not exciting. The headlights especially bug me, they look like something from a mid-90s GM or something.
This is in a TN town with more than one Veyron, a couple Paganis and a slew of Lambos, Ferraris, Astons, etc. It takes something like this to actually catch people's attention.
shoulda seen the crowd around this guy... Ok, I was one of them.
Reasons that your gas pedal is always the answer.
it would only be fitting the mustang platform be used, since it was the American falcon's platform that birthed the mustang
Yahoo emailed me just today and told me I had to download the attached file or I'd have my email turned off...
it looks a bit short, but those flares throw off the proportions. So far i've not found any real countaches that combine those fenders, taillight configuration, rear bumper indention (where the emblems are is rectangular like a euro plate mount, rather than indentions for each emblem), and the blockey looking shrouds…
i'd like to see them buy the rights to this for production/development in the US
