What I can't help but wonder on that Alpha.... what is supporting the roofline in case of a rollover. The window/roof line is super sexy...but is it safe?
Yes, I see it.
When I giggled it, the Ferrari GTO popped up too.

I have a lexus gx470 that has those pop outs on the back windows. But they are a)manual and b)at the back. So I found some powered latches from a land cruiser and wired them in. Now I have a button up front to open them - it's a minor thing, but now one of the things I love most about the truck.
Especially if there is a sunroof. The ability to create upward flow without having to open windows next to/directly behind your ears is fantastic.
I also really enjoyed the small triangles in the front of the driver/passenger windows, and the floor vents near the front occupant feet. Sure...cars were load as hell....but I didn't care so much as a kid.
The car reminded me of my future brother-in-laws Opel GT in the early 80s (I think it was a '72). Especially the rear of the car....
(not his car.... but very similar)
Aside: I loved flip-out windows on the cars in the 70s. Sure, I prefer AC... but as a kid those were so fun to play with.

Very nice.

Paula is very happy with her Mazda, and I still dig my 2003 Pontiac. The Pontiac has been paid for since I bought it and her Mazda will be so in two years and still has only 55k miles on it. It may be a very long time before we purchase vehicles.
