Morning everyone. Today's QOTD is a bit US-centric...If you were going to import something that turned 25 this year what would it be?

@Basmitharts dang it I wish we could QT our own posts! Was just answering someone else on the same topic the other day.

In Canada the limit is only 15 years so my choice would be a 2008 CitroΓ«n C6...

@DenOfEarth @Basmitharts There was one of these on UK ebay for about Β£2200 the other day. The temptation was STRONG
@DenOfEarth @Basmitharts You can sort of QT by answering your own toot/post, and then boosting it yourself. At least, that’s what I’ve read elsewhere, from those who think that the absence of QT is no big deal. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
@ZeKik @DenOfEarth @Basmitharts or copy url link to subject toot and I include it in a new toot. Some clients even display a preview of the original toot

@DenOfEarth @Basmitharts There is NOTHING in North America even remotely like the C6. In fact, the facelift C5, with the static center hub on the steering wheel is also quite something to behold.

I should buy one of these for my property in France. Maybe someday. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

@DenOfEarth @Basmitharts Found an image of the C5 steering wheel. See how it is turned, but the central hub is static, with all the controls? This also means that airbags will ALWAYS inflate with the intended pattern, so could potentially offer better protection than others. Some other CitroΓ«ns from the same period also had this feature.

The C5 name still exists, but designates entirely different cars today, so it’s confusing.
