    I totally understand. I heard a rumor that the exterior styling prototype for what became the 5th gen was actually supposed to be the 4th gen but it got pushed back for some reason for the rounded one...maybe because that was more popular at the time?

    It is interesting the extreme contrast of 80's styling where everything was sharp and angular to curved in the 90's

    I didn’t embrace the round prelude either, but I didn’t hate it. Just thought it no longer looked like a prelude, but at least it looked sportier?

    I was also particularly impressed by its space age looking interior, but looking at it now , it seems kinda dated, huh? Still not bad looking though, except for the steering wheel. I hated the steering wheels of the 90s along with those annoying automatic seatbelts!

    Early 60's Ford Falcon driven by a long haired kid. Best part is it was a three on the tree and he seemed to be enjoying himself.

    I got a nail in one of my tires while out of town a couple weekends ago. I discovered it early Sunday morning and also learned my favorite tire store chain, Discount Tire, is not open on Sundays. I ended up at an independent shop in Loveland, CO as soon as they opened at ten o'clock. It's the kind of place that sells (and leases, according to signs in the showroom) those huge 24" and 26" wheels that some guys put on pickup trucks along with ultra-low profile tires. As a middle-aged guy with a Honda Ridgeline, I got the feeling I was not their typical customer.

    Anyway, this was parked inside. There was a wired remote control on the driver's seat that I assume controlled the height of the vehicle.

    I wonder how much weight that adds

    There were some pretty interesting cars at our local car show the other day. My son is photobombing my Lotus picture.
    If anyone saw the Fallout TV show, you'll notice the Kaiser Darrin as one of the cars in a flashback.
    The Nash had a whopping 42 hp.
