Quite sad that my son knows this, but Chrysler first began using them in 1959, they then stopped and began using them in the early 80's again, apparently   :-?

my car (1996 omega mv6 3.0) was paid 98.000 DM when new.
i bought it in 2008 for 3900€ (with lpg installed).

speak of the depreciation. ;D ;D ;D

nominally, 1€ worth 2 DM...BUT, inflation must be taken in account, because 98.000 DM worth much more in 1996. than 98.000€ worths now.

 Alot of yank cars, Chrsler, Oldsmobile , Chevy, Pontiac etc introduced stuff way before the japs.

When I was valeting my mate was car trading and was a bugga buying the yank cars, have seen them with cig lighters in each door, vaum/air operated suspention, windows, rollover/flip up head lights.  Electrically adjusted eveything even the steering wheel rake and distance.  Power steering that a 4 year old  could turn with thier little finger.

Also something I have never seen on europen cars,  You know the big chrome bumbers you see on the old pontiacs etc, well they are mounted on 2 Pnumatic buffers like you have on trains.  I one ripped an upended kerb stone out of the bround with 3' of concrete holding it in, had a feeling I had clipped it, there was eben a dink right on the coner of the bumper, but when I checked the kerb stone had been ripped out of the ground and was laid on it's side.
