You guys keep hitting homers on the first pitch, Kitaikki being the most recent with the Scirocco. I never could throw a ball worth a damn, but I’m hoping this takes just a wee bit longer, or I’m going to have to trade myself back to the minors.

Sure looks like a 1982 Accord, but knowing you, Paul, it can’t be that easy …
Ford Fiesta around 1980?
Definitely Japanese. Dodge Colt Vista?
Toyota Starlet?
Dude! A clue that’s mostly damage? Play fair.
Sorry, but the last few clues have obviously been a bit too easy. It’s hard to know where to crop. And from the looks of the guesses already, at least someone hasn’t found it that hard.
+1 Honda Accord. Definitely not the hatchback though…..
Yeah, it was definitely the ’82 sedan, with its squarer trunk I had in mind!
I think Tom Klockau’s got it, it looks like a 81-84 Toyota Starlet. It’s a tough one though, everything about it screams early 80’s Japanese, but there are a ton of models from that period that have very similar looking taillights.
I’m going to take a slightly different angle on this and say that it’s the amateur damage repair material we’re reviewing, not the car…I’d say 3M packing tape of recent vintage, maybe circa 2008.
Glad to see per the later followup that I actually nailed a CC Clue. (There were lots of these ’82 Accords in California, that’s for sure.) But I am sure it will be the only and only time!
Congratulations, but don’t underestimate yourself 🙂
