    Oh.

    I always thought the AE92 coupe used the Sprinter nameplate.

    It did.

    It's that there were E90: 3-door hatchback, 5-door hatchback, 5-door liftback, 5-door wagon (2 different bodies!) and 2-door coupes.

    Not a big fan of the 2018 Toyota Sienna facelift, especially compared to the pre-facelift version.

    I think it makes it look like a performance vehicle.

    That's what to expect from Toyota's update, especially that it looks like an Minivan Camry by the front.
    OT:

    This old Anglia looks pretty nice, even to this day. But, it was then later butchered:

    Dope face

    The most WTF generation so far.
    Yeah, the Anglia's design in the future wasn't so supreme.

    I'm a fan of the Sienna. My father owns a 2013 Sienna, and I drive it on a regular basis. It's a great car. But the new facelift is pretty underwhelming.

    To me, it's just following the design trend. It just looks like an stereotypical future Toyota design like the 2019 Avalon, and 2018 Camry.

    I disagree. They all look nice to me.

    It is your opinion, I do respect it, but for me, the later Anglias just look ridiculous.

    Lol the Beetle was terrible. The new beetle is a ACTUAL CAR, not a Tiny Nazi car made for poor people in the 40s, but "lol, lets make it till 98" -VW. the only thing the Beetle was good for was its tunability.

    Not meant to nitpick or anything but the "old" Beetle was made until 2003.

    Also, If you could afford a car in the 1930's and 40's in Europe you were doing relatively well, far from poor.

    It was, but until 2003, not 1998.

    I don't think so. A similar discussion surfaced in the VW Herbie mod thread, and while it wasn't endorsing anything, only stating historical facts, it was still deemed inappropriate.
