JANUARY 2020 CAR SPOTTERS THREAD!
From the rear it could just as well be a toyoter or hyundai; supremely generic.

Found a few more vintage plates where states embraced the same 'outline' concept, but obviously the ability to do so is limited. Firstly tho, who wouldn't want to top their '50s TN plate with another TN-shaped topper?

• As listed above, the 250 & 350 have the same pan, so yes. • THM400 is a monster, can be built to handle anything.

That wasn't a THM200 behind the 260? Dad had a TH200 (I think) behind a '77 Pontiac 301 V8. Looking at a '75-82 Chiltons, there were the following: THM180 THM200 THM 250 / 350 / 375B THM400 THM425 The above are grouped by pan shape, so the 250/ 350/ 375B were the same basic unit. The 400 & 425 are strongly related, but of course the 425 was configured for the FWD E-Bodies. I never heard of the THM180 before today.

I think they both merely look ‘current’.

Car design is basically dead. It’s been a long, fun, interesting time, but its done.

I guess my initial point was, porsche styling is stuck in 'P'.

To porsch-O-philes, I guess. IMO, the GP is a heritage modern version of past Pontiac designs.

My buddy just pulled the running I-6 out of his '77 Malibu coupe last week (to replace it with a 454). Not sure of the miles on it, but it was running fine / car is in good shape. The '75 I knew only in '84-85; never saw the guy after that. At 10 years old, it was in excellent shape and ran the highway fine. It had no power to speak of, but once it got up to 80 MPH, it held it fine. I had a Super Six (Slant Six) Plymouth, a '78, and that was the same way. Sold it at about 95K miles because I just HAD to get into a 14 yer OLDER car instead (You know me!). Not powerful, but it got the job done. I heard that car was still going at least 5 years after that (at which point it was about 18 yrs old), but the MoPar Slant Six was the SBC of sixes- runs forever.

I question whether Fiskar can survive financially at that price tier, but if buyers bite, this potentially strong-arms all other EV CUVs in pricing.
