    Not a Stratos, it looks bigger and taller than that. Probably with a boring engine too, judging by the exhaust size.

    Actually the engine's pretty interesting. And no, not a Stratos.

    It's a 1968 Saab Sonett V4 (based on the II model series) which isn't a particularly big car. :)

    EDIT 1: Here's the original pic.

    EDIT 2: I know what you guys are thinking but the next car's obscurity level is roughly comparable to that of the Sonett V4:

    It's yet another model I had to identify myself (on the basis of this particular picture) by the way. Before you choose to ignore it (as you did with my previous entry whose identity no one seems to be interested in) PLEASE ask for hints, OK?

    EDIT: Matra 530 LX?

    Intermeccanica Murena 429 GT. 11 built, according to Jalopnik. Weird, but cool...

    Edit, someone have my turn, I'm utterly out of ideas.

    Very nice. A cut glass bar in the rear would do very nicely. What a thing. :D

    Looks like the b'tard offspring of a muscle car & a hearse.

    I'll be damned! I even posted this car myself on another forum - I just never made the association for some reason. :wallbash:

    Why does Crazy's little red car remind me of an IFA or DKW? Not much grill. Rear engined maybe?

    My guess would be an IFA as it looks like it says it on the bonnet.
