Favorite cars from each country
Which are your favorite cars from each country (by manafacturer's origin, not the actual spot it's built on)? American, German and Japanese are obvious; you can also pick your top British, French, Italian, Korean, Swedish or whatever. Note that Chevrolet is 99.9% American. n.n
For me- American: Chevrolet Corvette German: Porsche 996 Japanese: Datsun 2000 Roadster, Mazda RX-7 British: Nash Metropolitan, Bentley 8 Litre Swedish: Saab 9-5, Volvo P1800E |

U.S.A. - Franklin, nothing beats the sound of an air-cooled straight six!

(except when compared to Tatra 603) Italy: FIAT 600 (the first and last good car to come from Italy) Austria: Steyr-Puch France: ??? (honestly, I can't think of any good French cars right now) Sweden: Saab 96, but 2-stroke power only. Spain: Biscuter Poland: Syrena(proper spelling?) India: that one suzuki based car they were making back in the 70's. Hmmm, maybe I should have done this in alphabetical order.

Correction, knows nothing about French cars. I think you need to read over my list again, I'm sure that there's a couple in there that you've never even heard of!
But now that I think about it, my favorite French car is the Simca 1000.(though the 4cv Renault come in a close second) My mind was drawing a blank last night, for some reason when I thought about French cars, a mid-eighties diesel peugeot kept popping into my head.
