OHH, Chris,
You are SOO right. They were both such striking cars that I jumped to
the wrong "contusion". :-)
Now, the question is, what is that in Hawaii? Are they for real? They
do make panels and such, and I see some kind of mini-suv being built,
but have no idea if this promotion is four a Celica rebody?
Any clues?
