The brochure doesn't mention Pininfarina's involvement which is odd, since by then they were recognized as the premier design house but you can see their flash emblem just ahead of the door. The restrained form compared to regular Eldos just about shouts Italian design and you're correct in stating that this car which only sold a few hundred presaged the handsomer Caddys of the 60s.

I remember the first Park Avenue I saw at a car show a few years ago. I didn't even remember that Cadillac had a Park Avenue. I had to go home and look up the history.

Forgot all about that Fleetwood 60 Special Ima. I think it was more a 60's thing, but I always liked the greenhouse and formal C pillar on them.
Fin, I think the terminology and verbiage could vary from some years to others. Brand management I suppose

So what's a designer to do? He can a) go retro; b) he can do a Full Honda Type R or c) he can fiddle around the edges.
I'd say the Infiniti roof line owes more to BMW than to Audi (there's that Kinky kink again)

Ferrari 308 GTS - Magnum's car, only yellow.
Yup, it's a Ferrari 308 GTS. They had a name for that color, do you recall it?

Oh, I was referring to the roof arc, not how the roof resolves into the C pillar. Audi was the first IIRC, to take a car roof and bend it like a playing card into a shallow semi-circle.
I see, actually I owned a '98 A4 that had the "arc". I used to think of it as "Audi's perfect arch"

Pretty close, it's a 1992 Pontiac GP/Richard Petty Edition (hence the 43/Nascar decals)

The Pontiac Rallye II wheels were a popular option. Spokes were chromed on most versions.

It was thinking that 455 seemed to be too large a number and finding that the largest for the GP that year was 428.
SJ was a trim level.
My 2000 Solara I had at the time was light years nicer inside, but not quite as quick.

The right hand lane is led by a 1961 Buick sedan, 4-porter (Roadmaster?). Behind it is a nice
'64 Dodge in light teal followed by a 1960 Olds flat-top. The cube truck is a Dodge.

'55/'56 w no "V" on the front that's followed by a '61 Chevy which might be a "bubbletop" and a older Chevy, can't tell if it's a '55 or '56.
