In the immortal words of Maxwell Smart, "Missed it by THIS much". Car deserved a better fate...

Honda was not involved in any way with this car. You're thinking of the Sterling 825 and 827, which came out later. But yeah, it's hard to fuck up Honda reliability.

While I wouldn't expect either one to be reliable, Jaguar made more desirable versions of the XJ6 sedan in earlier and later years. The Rover is a 4 door hatchback version of the Triumph TR8, in spirit. I can't help but want that.

It's actually a Series 62 Convertible. The first Cadillac convertible to be designated as a "de Ville" was the 1964. Also, Coupe de Ville was only used on the, uhh, coupe.

Kill it with fire.

Looks like the VW Fastback I grew up in- http://www.oldparkedcars.com/2010/06/1969-v…

Hell, why WOULDN'T they?

Lexus, I AM YOUR FAAATHER.

Oh, and this, too-

Oh EL no!

I understand and agree with your 53/100 score. On my own I MUST HAVE THAT NOW scale, I humbly submit that it gets 100/53, with bonus points awarded for massive clown car factor.
