mmm.. Pentax to maybe Peugeot..not the first cars/cameras looked at by consumers, though it rings a bell. Consumer access to brilliant easy handling mechanics in a small package (Peugeot 206/ MZ,ZX-5n). Sleeky flagship MZ-S, Coupe 406 (especially that one with the leather interior!).. And having a bit of a presence in medium format (645n II.. compact/easy handling, wide range of good lenses) while Peugeot's got a bit of a presence in WRC with the 206 (compact/easy handling) and a great crew.. Oh also for P & P, not enough following to make their lenses/cars cheap..
or maybe Mazda. MX5 being small (some people say too small) luxy though not quite a BMW roadster, MZ5n small, some people say too small, luxy, though specwise, arguably not a pro-ish camera. Plus did I mention a whole bunch of non-spectacular consumer cars/cams.. And not the best marketing (but with so much potential).. On another note.. It would be interesting I think if Pentax tried making an automobile.. Wouldn't that look curious- a Pentax crest on your bonnet.. I also thought it'd be interesting to see Schott windows/windscreens! Though I'd settle to see a Sigma EX APO windscreen on its own..
