Did anyone notice how the instrument cluster and the lower controls have the same shape as the
taillight and the reflector light on the rear bumper. Alliteration.

I recall that fad from the 50s. On some taillights it makes the color more purplish and piercing, in my opinion. It was a fad somewhat like the fad of recent years of having "fog lights" or "driving lights" on your car and driving around in normal weather with them on to impress people.

Here we have American themes like two-tone paint, quad headlights, pillar less hard-top, wraparound glass, tail fins and chrome accents used in a restrained way to create a styling masterpiece,

There were more two tone options for fintails, especially early cars, but with the fins, these aren't as restrained:

Going back to the Auto Union SP 1000 we had that offered here in about 1960-62 and was only sold here as an Auto Union and rarely seen but the contemporary DKW saloons were marketed fairly widely here as DKW although with an Auto Union badge I think - sort of "DKW by Auto Union"
Yup, that's a 1967 Imperial Crown (they weren't badged as Chryslers in '67 IIRC (it's confusing)
