Where are these small auto's coming from? Are they like matchbox cars or something that is made and released by the OEM builders?

This would be the time for GM to cut bait and run. Use it to unload a ton of bad UNION privilages and focus on the global Chevy\Buick\Cadillac. Or outside of the US/China just go with Chevy as the entry to mid lux brand and Cadillac as the luxury brand. Time I think to close the Opel\Voxhall to history books much like many other auto companies. I think this would allow GM to shed a large amount of over capacity and clean up old debt and union dues and move forward with a global streamlined auto plan. This is way over due and about time for a proper shake out of all auto companies.

I'm 6'3" and fit in my Forester (which has a sunroof) with plenty of headroom to spare. I also don't have to move the seat all the way back, it has plenty of travel to spare and leaves plenty of room behind me. That is very surprising as so far every Forester and pretty much every Subaru I have sat in, to get it to fit me at 6'6" tall no one can sit behind me and I am unable to sit upright as I have to have the chair partially reclined. Be interesting to see if this whole downsizing thing continues as they will pigin hole more people into select models as they give up on having full size vehicles.

YAWNNNNN, This company has legendary AWD and will have a solid following for some time, but they consider to downsize the vehicles and nothing they have fits a 6' tall or taller man comfortable. But then the average size of people I guess will keep them alive. Just wish they could actually build some excitement into their cars other than the WRX/STI.

Driving around Kirkland this weekend, I saw 2 or 3 of these being test driven and have to say they are still BUTT UGLY!!! They are narrow, very tall cars with their donut tires and going around a corner I noticed considerable body roll. They look cheap and the people driving them look uncomfortable in the cramped interior. Not impressed and in regards to their Styling, they need to wake up and find someone that understand the definition as I do not read or hear positive things about the little car. The local Seattle times review was not at all positive about the car.

Lovely old car, yet the condition and price made me have to give it a jeers. Sorry, but that is how I feel when it comes to a historical piece like this for the price being asked. Needs to be restored. Good luck with the sale.

Awesome find and for someone wanting to have a piece of history and restore it to mint condition an exception starting point for the price.

Bimmer 325, I have to totally disagree with you, you been looking at those poorly made German cars too long.

Cheers for a clean little convertible. History piece now.

I see what you mean Balthazar, but I actual think the head lights work and for the rest of it, I give it a 95% except for the Engine only gets a 65% as there is no reason to have a carb in todays society when you can have a sweet fuel injected beast. To Me the Ramjet would have been a sweet fit, either in 350 or 502 form. The style of the engine would go much better with the body of the car.

Stupif flub by marketing as you should always release on a thursday or friday so you can drive traffic and sales into the floorroom for sales.

Yes I think the naming is silly, but everyone seems to be going to silly names or stupid initials.

Great compilation of the Stevens pass ski season for boarders, enjoy

Gotta say while I wish there was a hybrid now to put Lexus in it's place, this will do as it is really nice. Nice capure Chris.
