240sx<br>eclipse gsx awd<br>3000gt vr-4<br>

[Santeno]

the Bug-eyed Sprite! But with modern mechanicals, interior and construction tolerances of course.

[mzoltarp]

Jeep Cherokee (the Liberty drove me from Jeep on first sight and I'd love to have a real Cherokee again)<br>VW Microbus (hello VW build the concept...duhh)<br>Porsche 944 (fast, cheap, durable, all Porsche yet not a 911 caricature)<br>Audi Fox (Ital design)

[anonms]

MICROBUS, DAMNIT.

[mzoltarp]

Bullet fendered Thunderbirds (early 60's)<br>Early 60's Continental (simple, timeless and gorgeous)<br>63 Corvette Stingray (emotional and breath taking unlike today's vette)<br>Ferrari Daytona<br>Lamborghini 350GTV

[olegk21]

I definately agree with the cherokee,<br>In my opinion the last cherokee is way better than the current liberty.<p>-more room<br>-more power<br>-less weight<br>-plenty of aftermarket parts for serious off-roading

[ToyotaFreak]

I'd like to see;<p>-The return of the Toyota Chaser & Cresta to join the Mark X.<br>-Toyota Crown Athlete/ Royal wagon.<br>-3-door RAV4<br>-The return of the FSE (D-4) engine on the new RAV4 in Japan.<br>-A new version of the Toyota Nadia.<br>-The return of the WiLL branded cars in Japan.<br>-A re-incarnated version of the 660cc Honda Z.<br>-Suzuki Swift sedan.<br>-Opel/ Vauxhall Omega (But not a booted Signum please.).<br>-An all-new Subaru SVX.<br>-Bring back the Japanese retro-styled cars! (Especially the cute ones!)<br>-All-new Corolla Levin/ Sprinter Trueno.

[Hornbag]

I say bring back the Ford GTHO as an FPV vehicle!!! Pack the power under the bonnet, and watch it eat HSV's alive. Honestly, a GTHO would bring so much cred to Ford, but only if they made it bloody good, like the origional.

BMW 8 Series<br>Ford Bronco <br>Tahoe 2 Door (i think it was labeled Blazer earlier on as well or always??)<br>Acura CL<BR><BR>

[olegk21]

I'm not familiar with a of the european and japanese only vehicles mentioned here.<p>My opinion is based on market demand.<br>Here's my revised list.<p>1)cherokee - better than the liberty and cheaper<p>2)240sx - cheaper and lighter alternative to mustang with a VQ engine (sort of like a stripped down version of the G35)<p>3)eclipse gsx awd - something like the evo, in an eclipse body, and with lower insurance cost <IMG NAME="icon" SRC="http://www.germancarfans.com/images/forums/biggrin.gif" BORDER="0">

Has anyone mentioned Yugos yet?

I think Mercedes is running away with those segments as far as production numbers and world-wide sales, and i would love to see BMW get back into the game with a two-seater or a less-controversial coupe (not sold on the 6er)
