A little taste of Canadian History for you. I haven't seen one in about
30 years.

There used to be an orange one not too far from me. It had a for sale sign on it for a while, so he must've sold it since I haven't seen it this year at all.

My neighbor is a die hard fan and owns a beautiful and pristine orange model....

Even the carpets look new !!

I'll have to ask him about the comeback....the Bricklin really is a bone of contention for some "older" NB'ers !

Sweet, and as the NB'ers go I guess you can't blame them, cost them a bundle.

Don't want to highjack this thread or anything---but I was driving down Lundy's Lane in Niagara Falls today and I saw a new Blue Corvette do a "U" bolt right in front of me!!---It had New York plates on it---then I noticed it was a ZR-1--first one I have met casually on the street!!!!

If the carpets look new the car has never been in the rain in 30 years.

I owned one back in the day. White. It was fun for a while but a real turd WRT build quality. A few guys actually put in minature eaves trough along the upper back window with downspouts going into those huge coffee cans.............
Overall they were pretty terrible.......but certainly different.....

I traded it in to Rob Myers on a 64 Fuelie coupe with OEM knockoffs......much nicer car!!!
