My guess is most probably wrong because of the hint you said but... from the looks of the second picture, the 1966 Studebaker Lark Cruiser came to mind, the last year in which it was produced.

clue: if you ad an "n" to the name of the manufacturer and rearrange 2 letters, you will get the country of where the car was made.
I'd say it is NSU?

Oh, well. Thanks for participating stinkypie! You know you're welcome here anytime!



Hints:
The company that made this car is not a surviging company.
The name of the car is the name of a region somewhere around the world.
I like that car. (not that it would help much)

packard carribean

new entry


the car was only built for 2 years, and its believed that 1500 cars still exitst.
the car was a bit of an oddity, because it was centered around safety, which was unusual for a sports car.

more clues available....if no one gets it.

Damn. That car looks like it has a Stingray Corvette front, Delorean body, and an 80's 300zx rear end. I like it

Good car pbfoot. It's a very beautiful 2005 Marcos TSO GT2. I love the newer version more, though... 2007 Marcos TSO GTC.



New car: You can say this is a modified car... it's base car is either a luxury coupe or a luxury sports coupe. That should be enough for those who know about cars.
