Gurgels are so cool. I saw one when I was in Panama once and it’s as weird in person as it looks in pictures. My favorite is the BR-800 which looks like something an old Bond villain would use to shuttle around a volcano lair.

Still very retro :)

This was when he found out about round shapes:
But yeah, super retro! But luckily I’m a huge fan of outrageously wedgy and blocky cars
