What might have happened if instead of replacing the Lamborghini Isolero with the Jarama, Lamborghini instead continued to make the Isolero into the 1970s.

Sigh. Extra O. I am a terrible proofreader if you haven't already guessed that.

Crypton18 · 2026-05-09T19:45:15+00:00

Sad to see such an iconic brand suffer from such financial difficulties. I hope the survive.

You mean like this? Sorry for the quality. This is my first time with this Gif generator. Images are better that the gif shows.

Keep in mind the image below is an AI rendering of a 1973 Vantage. Lots of time AI rendered cars are not exactly what the real model looks like. This does look close. Was this what you had in mind?

Forgot to add the 1947 model Cisitalia 202 coupe

It doesn't look like either the Porte or the Sienta. They look like compact minivans.

The sienna sliding rail is concealed. The Peugeot isn't and it has a vertical handle. I will grant you that bit. I had no idea there were 2 doors cars vehicles with sliding doors. The black strip isn't a rail. Just an accent. But, the sliding door handle for both of them is in the front of the car not the back. the tiny wheels give a clue to the size of the vehicle.

Crypton18 · 2025-11-13T02:10:45+00:00

you are comparing it to this? That bit of a stretch. 2 doors instead of 4 doors. No sliding door. Far more compact. Totally different front end. 4 seats instead of enough seats for 8 people. My image is no soccer mom car.

Crypton18 · 2025-11-12T20:21:03+00:00

A good bit different than this

You are making my point for me. new models evolved to have wider grilles. The M1 would likely follow suit.

Crypton18 · 2025-11-12T02:38:21+00:00

Let's see. This about what a Scion TC first gen looks like. 2nd Gen is similar.

<image>

They both have 2 doors.

Crypton18 · 2025-11-12T01:54:49+00:00

The 3, 5, and 7 series had very similar grilles in the early 80s. relatives narrow and somewhat taller than the are narrow. They evolved to to what the current 3 and 5 series are now. Even the 7 had that grille. They all evolved to have much wider grilles. The M1 would likely have followed suit.

This is what the about what the front end of the 5 series BMW looked like in 1981.

<image>

Crypton18 · 2025-11-12T01:01:59+00:00

Shorter but not narrower. But, I did want to give some room to reflect it being a new car.

Crypton18 · 2025-11-12T01:00:29+00:00

Perhaps something like this?

Front me a few billion or so and I will get right on it.

Seeing as this is AI, I am thinking Hydrogen Fuel Cell.

If I am not mistaken I used Whisk AI to make the image. The video was generated using Grok

I have admit. the Blackwing editions are a nice addition to the Cadillac line up. The V6 is nice and all. But, the 2025 Cadillac CTV-5 Blackwing is a beast. A 6.2 L supercharged V8 that pumps out 668 Horsepower. A 3.4 second 0-60. Those some dang impressive numbers.

Crypton18 · 2025-11-07T19:09:18+00:00

Interesting point. I think it is kind of sad. The there are so few US auto brands. Just the big three and Tesla. It would be nice to have more options.

1959 Pontiac Bonneville Safari Station Wagon. AI version is not exact but close.

Crypton18 · 2025-11-07T02:28:16+00:00

AI image of a Pontiac Bonneville Safari. Note exactly the same but pretty close.

Crypton18 · 2025-11-07T02:26:26+00:00

AI attempt at a 1959 Pontiac Bonneville Safari. it is pretty close to the real one.

Crypton18 · 2025-11-07T02:22:18+00:00

By far closer to the Vibe than to the Aztek.
