Saw a first gen Insight the other day. Nothing especially exceptional about it, but it had a huge Mercedes logo on the rear hatch (like the one you would see on a Sprinter or other large vehicle). Drove by too quickly to get a pic, but thought it was funny.

Had that been a Toyota instead of a Honda, wouldn't really surprise me, as the Brazilian derivative of the 40-series Land Cruiser had Mercedes-Benz engines through most of its production run.

Sure this might not be the most fuel-efficient model, but a 31y.o. dedicated-ethanol Monza (the Opel-based Brazilian model) is not something so easy to see anymore.

There are some mistakes, such as pointing the Opala as a contender to the Corcel, to which an actual contender from GM was the Chevette. |

Finding a mid-to-late '90s Corsa that stock is not so easy anymore. Those wheelcovers nowadays are quite unobtainium...
