The Forgotten Cars Thread

Great car, isn't it? I've rode in one, and it's the perfect balance of performance and luxury. Very plush, comfy interior.

Luxurious?

I got a heck of a deal, It had 117,568 miles on it and I bought it for $880.00 and it still runs brand new.

Luxurious?

LHS was the most luxurious Chrysler you could have bought in the 90's.

Seeing a Micra CC today reminded me of the Mitsubishi's version of the hardtop convertible supermini.

Reminds me of:

Nissan Micra CC:

Peugeot 206 CC

Honestly, I'd take all three. I do like little sports roadsters like that, and they seem fun to drive.

Unfortunately for me, I see one regularly when I'm walking to the train station, they're horrible things.

2009 Kia Borrego, Kia's largest SUV. I think of these as Kia Suburbans, because both are V8 powered, truck based, and large. It looked pretty good, but was a sales disaster. It was only sold in the states for one year, and sold roughly 5,000 units.

Car and Driver's sub-header when they reviewed it was about all that ever needed to be said about the Borrego:

Even down to dimensions and engine options, it was like Hyundai made a dedicated effort to completely copy everything Chevrolet had done with the Trailblazer. 7 years after the fact.

Cool article, thank you!

1995 Buick Riviera.

That car was a magnificent piece of engineering, but it's too bad it was released at a time when big personal luxury coupes were fading away. If it was introduced 10 years earlier than it would be a real sales success.

There is someone not too far from where I live that has a bright green one. No need to say that it stands out on the road.

Sometimes I forget that Isuzu even makes cars. XD Then I remember the 4200R and get sad thinking about what could have been.

I can't believe I forgot about Callaway. *facepalm*
Why aren't these things in more racing games?!

I wish it was in GT it looks cool just needs better paint.

 

[Obelisk]

I just remembered the Kia Cee'd.

These should come to the U.S....

Ford EXP is not extinct it seems. I saw one yesterday with blue smoke trailing. It is basically the Escort ZX2 of it's day. Still interesting to see at least one still alive.
