I had a red Subaru Legacy. It showed swirl marks really bad. I remember
picking it up new at the dealer and being disgusted with the swirl marks.

One each of every Chrysler 300 Letter Car between 1957 and 1961, A 1967 Hemi GTX, '66 Satellite, a 1971 Imperial, a 1970 300 Hurst Edition, a '67 Charger (383), '68 Charger R/T (440), '71 GTX. Maybe a few Airflows from the 30s, a LeBaron-bodied Imperial, a '57 DeSoto, a couple of Vipers (roadster and coupe), a 2008 Challenger,..... and for sentimental reasons a '54 New Yorker (331 Hemi) because that's what brought my pink little behind home from the hospital :-p ;-) |

Thinking about it, I would go with a Airflow too.
http://www.clearlight.com/~brawicz/chrysler-airflow/ For those who are unfamiliar with it, the car was so strong the Chrysler thru it off a cliff to show that afterwards the doors would still open. That film footage is still often shown today when it fits a comedy sketch on tv.

Drifting one more notch off topic, there's a TV commercial running now for some brand of pickup truck (Ford? Toyota? Can't remember) in which they crush it from both ends with two bulldozers. The bulldozers then back off, and the two passengers (that you didn't notice while the bulldozers did their thing) open the totally unscathed doors and get out.
