alot of you won't remember amc the car company thay made the pacer and gremlin they are coming back

Pacer
If ever a car deserved a do-over, it's the Pacer. By just moving a few lines around and redoing the glass area, AMC came up with a really cool version of the ol' fishbowl. The new styling team: magicians or miracle workers? What's surprising is how easily the Pacer could be modernized. This car is slightly downsized so as to compete with the Mini Cooper, but it won't be as small. The performance and handling outclass the Cooper with the bonus of getting great fuel efficiency. Who knew a Pacer could be this cool?




Gremlin
Presenting the new "it" car of college campuses everywhere. Like the Pacer, the Gremmie took to updating very well. With today's push toward smaller, lighter, and thriftier cars, AMC is in the catbird seat with this and the Pacer ready to go. In typical AMC fashion, the company dialed up the fun quotient, too. Care was taken throughout the entire range of AMC cars to come up with well-styled, exciting, fun-to-drive cars across all price points-something the other automakers could learn from.



AMX Coupe
Many people feel the original '68 AMX and Javelin were the coolest examples of the breed, so it was decided to base the new version of these cars on those classics, appropriately updating, detailing, and re-engineering them for today. The idea is to have the entire AMC lineup evolve like it has enjoyed continuous production. As in the past, the AMX and Javelin will share most major and minor components but will still remain unique cars.

This is pretty sweet. I wouldn't have expected this from AMC (chrysler?). I don't think this is the right time to being another car company into the market though... If these cars are priced right, I don't see how they won't make a come back. They look like cool concept cars but concepts always look better than the one that comes out. I think this might be a failed attempt but who knows... I could be wrong.
