Ah, the Contessa! A car produced by the unlikely alliance of Renault and a Japanese diesel engine producer, with a body penned by no one else than Giovanni Michelotti and mechanical tuning (and steering wheel) from Officine Nardi. The engine's power output was abysmal, and only three gears can't bring you anything good, but hey, I am a sucker for petite slow vintage rides, so all the better! I would love to see this getting into Gran Turismo at some point.

Also the PC-series sedan, while not the product of a famous pen, looks purdy.

The performance is quite modest but the design of the car is pretty nice
