Those wheels look tiny!

I have a feeling that Borgward failed, which is sad, because that means they’ll never get the chance to make a modern Isabella Coupé

Yeah, I was just thinking that....you heard it all over the news when the ‘new Borgward’ was relaunching.....but they aren’t Borgward, they are just another company with a resurrected nameplate churning out same old same old Crosso vers and SUVs :(

I’ve not heard them mentioned anywhere in a LONG time...

True, just a dusted-off nameplate with some C hinese money behind it. The one thing that had me hoping for greatness was the involvement of the Borgward family, but that sadly doesn’t seem to have worked out into cool cars. In my opinion a stunning big (electric)  coupe could have been a nice halo car for the brand.

Coupes are literally the opposite of profitable.

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > Hoccy 03/29/2020 at 13:18

ThT looks like a Buick and I mean that in the worst way possible  .

The owner is certainly proud to drive a Borgward BX7
