I have stated multiple times the influences on this car I am pointing out are not exclusive, so this is a waste of time to respond to, but I do find it hilarious that you think this car doesn’t reference at least the lincoln town car, we are talking about an era of car design with influences going in all directions, you are making an absurd argument to suggest that I am saying this is exclusively a 'murican thing.

This concept car is CLEARLY heavily influenced by the pre 1997 lincoln town cars… which were also influenced by lots of asian cars, I mean I don’t even like U.S. cars, I have never bought one and likely never will lol so it is funny that you are interpreting me being excited about a concept car from Hyundai as trying to claim it exclusively as a U.S. thing.

Also, I am from the U.S., and these types of cars are everywhere vs. I have definitely never seen a Toyota Century, so like yeah… I don’t mean to make this a U.S. centric conversation but rather point out connections to the culture/landscape I grew up in. The lincoln town car and cars like it were the grandpa car when I was growing up, I am sure you have grandpa cars wherever you live and they are probably a different type of car. Growing up as a USian I never thought of these cars as anything more than grandpa cars, but they are actually pretty cool and I was trying to shed some light on how these cars are more interesting than they seem especially if you don’t know much about U.S. cars to which I think the images I pasted clearly suggest an aesthetic link with this concept car whether it is direct or indirect.
