Old Cars: Reborn

We have seen how car names have come from generation to generation, like, for example, the Ford Mustang. Born in 1964, it has been ever since the favorite of almost every car enthusiast out there. On 2005, Ford decided to go retro with the Mustang, using as inspiration the design of the first generation pony car. But the Mustang name has never died, unlike some other American muscle cars, like the Dodge Charger, a very classic American muscle car that came back to life on 2006 ( with a mouth-watering 6.4 V8 HEMI on the R/T :D ). Also, the Dodge Challenger (1970-1983) was brought back to the streets on 2008. Another car ( one of my favorites :D ) was born in 1967. It lived until 2002, but it was reborn from the ashes like the Phoenix in 2010. Can you guess the car? Well, if you are thinking "Camaro", you are correct. It's design evoked the one of the first generation Camaro, the reason why almost everyone like this car, including aliens ( why you think Bumblebee transformed into a Camaro? ;-D ). Toyota also wanted to play Frankenstein (Lol!). That's why, in collaboration with Subaru (they couldn't do it alone), they developed the FT-86 (Future Toyota 86). The 86 comes directly from the Corolla AE86, and was inspired on some retro Toyota's. In the US, its known as the Scion FR-S and the Subaru BRZ. Like a blast from the past comes another new concept car inspired on the Datsun 510: Nissan IDx. This is a concept, not a pre-production model, and it has been somewhat criticized because of their denim interiors, automatic trans, and the fact that Nissan won't tell what's under the hood. But if you look at the resemblance of the Datsun 510 and the Nissan IDx, well, its awesome how they made an old model look new. Me personally, I would like to see the IDx turn into a production model. Now I ask you, what old cars would you like to see again? Do you have any favorite one? For me, I would also like to see Mitsubishi remake the racing essence of the 3000 GT or Eclipse into new cars.
