There seems to be less fun potential at your house than in your average stick shift car. Mount a steering wheel that spins and a pedal than makes vrooom - vrooom noises and then ...maybe.

They should really make a re-issue of this wild car. So, cool!
Good design is timeless. It was 1955. Even the Robots had grills:

But what he really wnated to be when he grew up was a Buick:

The first time I encountered one of those I was about 4 years old, messing around in an alley behind the house. A couple of doors down the garage was open and this was lurking in the shadows, ready to pounce on unsuspecting young tots such as myself like a grouper on a clownfish. I ran so far away.

Robbie couldn't make it as a Buick, producers said his teeth weren't good enough, but he did have a long career as a bit player.
