In 1947, soon after World War 2, BMW was not known as a luxury brand but as cheap cars.

First James Bond 007 movie with Sean Connery I saw was Goldfinger in 1964 and one of the best stars I remember was the 1964 Aston Martin DB5. :)

In 1964, my Dad bought a Chevelle Malibu with a 250 cubic inch inline 6 engine but later on he told me he wished he had bought the Malibu SS with a 307 cubic inch V-8 since it would have been more fun to drive. Our car was not an automatic transmission, at the time only luxury full size cars had that, it was a three on the post.  :)

Back in the 1930's, those were THE premium cars. Made in Fort Wayne, Indiana.  :)

A neighbor of ours had a 1965 Peugeot when I lived in Mexico City as a kid. It was this model but grey colored.  :)

A favorite of mine, the 1959 Cadillac Coupe De Ville, with the super large tailfins all Cadillac models had in that year.  :)
