Uh Kim,
         Avantis in 1963 and 1964 were made by Studebaker in South Bend Indiana. Pretty much All American. Even have a Studebaker designed 289 (No relation to the Mustang / Ford 289 - much bigger block) and some had Paxton superchargers. 
         Avanti is an Italian word meaning 'forward' but thats where the Euro thing stops. The body is actually designed by Raymond Lowey - the same guy who did the Coke Bottle. If you look at an Avanti from overhead, you can see the Coke bottle ish look. 
        Oh, and my Dad had one - sold it last year. (wasn't my idea!)

I'll take a Cadillac Allante if you're going for that euro thing. They are cool and rare.

I'll take a roll!
       Oh - and on the car front - give me a 1964 Avanti - they look cool - drive nice - and no one knows what they are! (Google it if you don't either)

I was going to sell duct tape with Honda logos on it in assorted colors. Call it "Honda Race Tape" good for 5hp per linear foot. I was expecting to be able to retire by the end of the year...
