A good design....is a good design....and sort of transcends time. Most of ya'll have a Gremlin or have had a Gremlin at some point, myself included. Look at all the ass lopped off cars that have followed in Gremlin's footsteps for instance, Honda CRX, Toyota Tercel, list if rather large. Check out the cars that all are related somehow to Pacer in the jpeg here, this is from mid 1990s, I don't remember the magazine however, maybe Car craft.

That is interesting Eddie. I always wonder if they steal the ideas from each other or do they go into the backroom and come up with the same design and then they just tweak it to make it their own.

You know that Teague & Porsche 'stole' each others lines, it came from a meeting in detroit in I believe 1977 or 78.
 
 
so no myths there, that was known!

I am always amused when a car comes out with  styling that looks like it was copied off one of those "weird" AMC cars folks USED to make fun of.    I may be odd (OK, I AM odd) but Ive always thought most AMC cars had very nice lines.. to me a Pacer looks like a Porche 928 that was over-inflated, a Marlin was much nicer than its similar Charger and the Matador coupes were elongated 70 Cameros with Frisbee taillights!  My Gremmie is just the 1st of many "kammback" designs to follow...
