Oh, they could finally tell the story of when the Cap'n was kidnapped (Capnapped?) and replaced with an evil Cap'n. That's why, for a while, the Cap'n on the box had no "C" on his hat. As far as I remember, they never resolved this. They just suddenly put the "C" back. Which is why I no longer eat treasure-shaped Cap'n Crunch cereal any more.
DKW 3=6. Simple, Teutonic beauty.
A car that's really built like a tank.
Suzuki Fronte coupe. Teeny, looks faster than it is, built like a tank by a motorcycle manufacturer.
I still see plenty of Broncos
The owner's manual for the tiny Kleinschnittger warned that it was not a normal car and shouldn't be treated as such. With a 125cc engine, rubber band suspension and tires not much wider than a bicycle's, it was a fair warning. It's sort of famous in this country for being the little car that parked in the bed of a Cadillac pickup in a commercial a few years back.
Good one.
Anything called "Big Bad."
Seulement le turbo.
I'm in my 30's and I still watch Dave from time to time. He has some good musical guests and he's comforting to watch. Like visiting your favorite uncle.
A V8 Gremlin, of course. You'll even have enough scratch left over to pay a cheap hooker to wash it for you.
Good list, but it's missing the ubiquitous Renaults 4 and 5. From the 60's to the 90's, you couldn't go anywhere in France without seeing a million of them.
Surprisingly legal, too, it looks like.
The Simca in Godard's Band of Outsiders is the Frenchest car.
Greatest taillights ever, imo.
Panhard PL17 Tigre. Beautiful and strange. Typical French engineering with the engine mounted to the exhaust. Luxurious and economical at the same time. Trés bon.
The French Isetta, the Velam. They took a weird little microcar and made it prettier, but weirder. The only car ever made with 11" wheels. While BMW replaced the Iso motor with a much more reliable single cylinder, the French retained the problematic double-piston Iso engine, of course.
Left over Deloreans on sale. Quite sad.
I believe he was the only president whose death was never mourned due to his association with the Rebels.
