Muffin` · 23 Mar 2009 at 20:57

looks like a bird of some sort - crap american thing then

lsg1r · 23 Mar 2009 at 20:58

I'm thinking a chrysler of some sort. Looks similar to the 300C/sebring interiors

How about an old Toyota Corolla???

Not and exact match but close http://pictures.dealer.com/rockinghamtoyota/94b014b67f000001013720a237c31fda.jpg

Closest suggestion yet, it even has the naff lighter socket...

Is there anything like/built on a corolla?

Nah, gotta be the one in the original pic for several reasons including the metal shaft and also the shape of the shift pattern.

Last word on this before I give up lol

* I reckon its a jap car made for the US market. Think corolla, camry etc.
* I reckon its not RWD, and the console stops just out of picture. The handbrake isnt shown, but I reckon its set back.
* Its definately not a peugeot lol
* I cant decide if its an old car, or a new rubbish car lol. I think it may be newer than we think as the trim is in good order, and the picture looks like it wasnt done with a 10 year old camera.

Yeah but given the location of cig lighter, toyota prolly has other cars which follow a similar layout.... or maybe model revisions

The other one I thought was a Honda of some kind. Maybe an older accord/acura/civic or something. Theres fairly big differences for the US.

A lot of the emerging companies were still making crap like that just a few years ago, so it could be some sort of Daewoo/Kia, but I think the Toyota is probably the right track, especially the american market part

It looks japanese to me, and wont be anything even half decent due to the manual gear selections on the box, higher end auto's all have the manual gear limiter operated electronically.

I dont think it is old, as covers on the cig lighter sockets are a relatively recent thing.

can't believe people said jag :eek:

all autos are J-gates, and no jag has an interior that cheap!

definitely something japanese imo

2006 Acura TL

This Buick is so very close...

grudas · 23 Mar 2009 at 21:54

How?

Maybach?

Come on, this is getting tedious.

mjt · 23 Mar 2009 at 22:08

it'll be some POS jap or american crap. it's got nastyfake wood, and the gearlever surround is also very cheap, and it comes with a warning!
does it really matter?!

86JR · 23 Mar 2009 at 22:13

looks to me like the OLD honda legend...

mjt · 23 Mar 2009 at 22:37
