It seems to be a flash exhibit, I know the ipod touch gets wonky at those.

[cliffordu]

13. You're stuck in the Cold War, old chap.

A real clue to your general Weltanschauung!

[Cirque du So-What]

15. Even during the cold war

Russian science, engineering & technology were far from primitive. After all, who launched the first satellite and launched the first human into space? Consider further that the Soviet Union was the second nation to develop a nuclear weapon and that they developed a hydrogen bomb a mere ten months after the United States.

[wtmusic]

24. Um, Klaus Fuchs "developed" the hydrogen bomb as much as the Soviets did.

8. They are a privately owned company too.

They have a definite edge in creativity over our state owned automaker!

[sakabatou]

9. Looks a lil like a Lamborghini

[dysfunctional press]

12. i thought that it looked a little like a sebring/nova kit car from the 70's...

the ones that went onto a vw beetle chasis.

[Fumesucker]

20. Or a Fiberfab Valkyrie..

Hard to find a decent pic of a Valkyrie..

16. Where do you buy the tubes when the old ones fail?

[madokie]

25. Yes, a bit on the garish side

Italians think the same about the styling of the Chevy Corvette.

[JVS]

18. I can't drive one of those to the store. Give me one of those Volgas that look like Volvos

[old mark]

21. I liked those giant cars they used to make that looked like a '50's Packard.

It was a ZIL, and here's some with that ol' used car king himself, Uncle Joe:

I understand they still make cars, but don't ever expect to see one here.
