What Do You Wish Was Being Announced At The New York Auto Show?

New cars! We all love seeing the latest cars and the soon-to-be-released models that will take to roads in the year ahead. Most exciting are actual surprises, completely unexpected takes that move a nameplate into a new direction, or even better, something as wholly and shockingly original as the GM Firebird III must have looked to the car buffs of 1959 (or 2026 for that matter. Even after more than six decades, that thing looks bananas).

Now, the NYC show isn’t really about wacky concept drops (boo), and I bet not even one 2027 model is spec’d with F-86 Sabre-style aero brakes as GM proposed for the Firebird III. So let’s consider some more down-to-Earth car desires from the gang:

Thomas Hundal: “The return of the Toyota Paseo Convertible.”

Seconded. What’s not to like?

Antti Kautonen: “A Chrysler New Yorker. It would be a Very Fancy Edition of the Charger with a formal roofline. Preferably with a vinyl top. I mean, anything else than a Pacifica…”

Stephen Walter Gossin is on the same Charger track:

With all of the talk in recent years about Chrysler only selling one vehicle, or possibly being shut down, I’d love to see that storied, old-school-cool brand get a product based on the new Charger platform. A 2027 Chrysler 300 2-door, with a Hemi and fuselage styling that looked like it came right out of 1971, but with modern engineering, would be glorious.
