Are Lexus, Toyota? I never knew that...and to be honest I'm not convinced. Acura / Honda are the same (and a Japanese company) and this is apparent due to the fact they are the same models, and the same could be said for Vauxhall / Opel. Lexus / Toyota however, have very different models, so I wouldn't have paired them as the same company Or is Lexus the luxury division of Toyota?

Lincon mercury and ford are the same also, but as for the color, it looks like the type of paint that changes color as the light changes around it, it may just be that the light that was hitting it made it purple, in a lower light it would be blue, you may think im crapping you-all but im not about the paint.

I don't think it is, those tend to look somewhat both colours at the same time. Though it is that shade of pink/purple that those cars always seem to use...along with a dark green as I recall. [addsig]

Yeah, Reno, Lexus is Toyota, they basically gave it (like Nissan's Dautsun) a new name in case the car line bombed. Honda did it with Acuras as well.

I know that in most other contries, Honda IS Acura, like you can buy a Honda Integra.

However, if you want a list of subsidiary car comanies ... look at GM ... holy crap. By the way, Vauxhall/Opel is owned by GM I thought Dodge was too, but they're not.

So, there's three American car companies: GM, Ford, Dodge (or who ever owns them). [addsig]

Nope. Dodge is own by Daimler-Chrysler

I think Ford and GM are the only two left.

The muscle cars can't compete with european (/japanese) sports cars.

And yes Myrk, I'm sure those girls were just making up for their small willys It is really fun driving/being a passenger in a nice convertable... maybe this is paret of the reason why people buy them
