Nope - the 123 was the start of the down-hill side. They didn't even 
try to

make the star mount look like a fake radiator cap!


My styling faves are the 107, 114/115, 116, and 123.  The 126
is OK, but not exciting, same with the 201.  The 124 is ugly-ass,
though in its wagon form it's nice.  Dunno about coupe/convertible
124's, haven't really seen any in person.  Everything newer has
too much pod in it.  (Except for the 129, which has too much
Mustang in it.)  I'm sure at some point we'll have something
newer anyway, once they're cheap enough.  Everything older is
a bit dowdy to me, excepting the Grosser.

Would love to have a brace of 124 AWD diesel wagons.  Too bad
there aren't any here!

Well, get busy! Sounds like a project. Might even involve microwave oven
steel?

Make a special oil pan (to clear the axle) out of oven metal?
