All I want that you cant get in America is one of the FPV cars, more specifically the GT-P but i'd be happy with any of em

Had't seen this before Steve, thanks for posting.

Some bad azz cars in that group along with a couple not so good (Honda Life and the Tata Nano remind me of four door Specks).

Kinda liked the Toyota Century Royal, looks like a real land yacht.

You can get a Nissan GT-R here maybe just not that model.

That Wiseman looks like a cross between a Cheetah and a Talbot.

These are just cars that are unrealeased in the u.s. It would be more intresting to know what wouldnt pass emissions over here, i know fpv cars wont. neither will alot of european jags.

I think the Weismann is pretty cool. I remember the Top Gear they did on the 6cyl version. Made me want one. Of course they make me want a lot of cars. :lol:

That's a shame on the M5 wagon. That would be perfect for my wife.

The Spec-V is a slightly ligher, not much changed, costs way more money model of the GT-R thats only available in Japan.

Most of those cars are hatchback designs. And we all know how much American don't want to purchase a hatch or wagon.......Canadians yes, Americans no.

I like the Toyota Century Royal, it looks like a Caddy and a Bentley had a hot one night stand.

I don't know why but out of all those cars the Alpha Romero is strikingly good looking. I guess its got that kind of GTO off-ness that make it great, but I don't know its just an amazing design.

I guess kind of how the only accord I like is the 7th generation coupe. Normally there's nothing I really like in the brand as a whole but it just sticks out.

But I can't help but wonder if the rear fascia is pug-ugly.

Pisses me off we don't get the Ford Falcon. I'd still take one over a new 2010SHO anyday.
