What American Car Should the Rest of the World Have Got?

America has made some pretty decent cars over the years. Things like the iconic Ford GT, the Dodge Charger, and even the Ram TRX – all good cars for very different reasons. But, did you know that not all of these models were offered to other countries? American drivers kept some of them all for themselves, so people overseas never even got a chance.

This feels unfair. So while I sit here imagining what it must be like to ride in the back of a suicide-door-equipped Lincoln Continental, I wondered what American-made vehicles you think the rest of the world should have had a chance to experience?

Now obviously, there’s always going to be some weird European who thinks a Silverado is the perfect car to import into their tiny Italian town. But we don’t want the one-offs and oddities. We want to hear your picks for cars that should have been sold by their manufacturers in other countries.

And you’ve got a lot of cars to choose from, as American automakers have been keeping cars exclusively for their American buyers for years now!

Maybe, like me, you think that the Lincoln Continental should have gone head to head with the best luxury sedans Germany had to offer on a global stage. Sure, it found a home in China, but let me drive one on the British country lanes I grew up around.
