    I like the Twingo's pedals; might have to mimic that on my own car, since the pedals are worn nearly smooth.


    No mention of the VW logo in the headlights on some models?

    Later model (I think 85.5+) Porsche 944 had a hidden trip odometer reset button. Anyone know where?

    @KaptKaos: It's under the seat, connected by wire to a circuit board inside the dash, and doesn't work?


    No, that's the XJ-S.

    By the time I get here, we're already on the 3rd page of comments, and the caption still reads...

    "100th Anniversary Clue In It's Headlight"

    So, is Audi's four-ring logo an easter egg for the cocks who drive them?

    Xzibit RE Panamera key fob:


    Yo dawg I heard you like cars so I put a car on your key so you can drive while you drive.

    @Bräd Jöhnsön: I had an IBM cab-forward-Chrysler-shaped black-plastic keychain when I was a kid. It had a little red LED inside that you pressed with a round button underneath. There was an IBM logo over where the windshield would've been, and the trunk opened up.


    That's what the Panamera made me think of.

    Cool stuff. Vette and Jeep are coolest.


    Volvo, lame--more like a Rorschach test. Plus, it's from Sweden--shouldn't there be a naked blonde in there?

    Dodge: That's not a cupholder any more than the thing inside my 240's glovebox is a cupholder.


    Renault: Consider making an even faster version with a "fast forward" pedal.


    Also, the top of my Volvo's valet key is perfectly rectangular. That's an easter egg too, right?


    if the New Beetle had a New-Beetle-shaped switchblade key I would appreciate it even more

    @FstrPssycw: That cupholder in the Challenger still looks more effective than the ones in my Escort. You know, the ones you could theoretically use while driving.

    I noticed the Nissan Cube feature at the Auto Show. I thought the pond-ripple headliner was cool. The Sentra rectangular dome light in the middle of it is not cool. Come on Nissan, somebody must make a round dome light.

    General Motors had something like the Nissan Cube for their headliners. Except that you didn't notice it until the car was a few years old.

    You missed all the Easter Eggs in the Corrado design.


    Like that Easter Egg where your windows don't roll up properly anymore. Or that your windshield wipers don't do anything. Or that your headlights are like candles in jam jars. Or that the ignition key will spontaneously stop working altogether.


    My Easter Eggs are much more noticaeble than these on other cars...
