The fastest production car in the world when it was introduced, the Avanti was manufactured and marketed by Studebaker from June 1962 to December 1963. The company built fewer than 6,000 Avantis before discontinuing the model. Subsequently, the Avanti name, tooling and plant space were sold and production of increasingly modified versions of the original Avanti continued until 2006.

Troy Donahue looks happy to get his hands on a Toyota Toyopet. Other U.S. car buyers were less enthused.

Toyota started making the Toyopet in 1947, but demand was minimal. In addition to postwar shortages of materials, Japan was short on people who knew how to drive.

When the company began to export cars to the U.S., they gave the Toyopet name to the Crown (essentially a modified Toyopet with a 1.5-liter engine). The 1959 Toyopet (the first sold in the U.S.) was both small and underpowered by American standards.

By the 1960s, Toyopet production was booming in Japan, but U.S. sales remained a drop in the bucket, and the 1964 model was the last Toyota sold in the U.S. to carry the Toyopet name.

The interesting thing about the Toyopet was that they actually made a separate version for the American market, because they knew Americans wouldn't buy a car with right hand drive.

The Mini Cooper DeVille, showcased by Peter Sellers in 1964’s A Shot in the Dark, was a must-have for Beatles’ manager Brian Epstein. He ordered four of them, one for each Beatle.
