Honda's about to start selling a new subcompact hatchback called the
Honda Fit.
Is that because it will "fit" virtually anywhere? I know that it's not
because the average person will "fit" comfortably into it!

the 180/190s (W120/121) that dated from '53 thru the early '60s (I owned
a '54 180 with a flat head 4 cylinder 52 hp engine for about a year).

I think officially they were marketed only as model names like every
other MB until the advent of the /8 "Strichacht" w114/w115 in 1968.
"S-Class" wasn't used until the the w116 and the silly notion of

do believe, they are called that because they look like pontoon bridges

Ah car names. I used to chuckle at the Chevy conversion vans called
"Landmark". As in what you don't want to become on the side of the freeway.
What's up with the Kia "Sephia"?
I think the auto industry is running out of names.
Why start just naming them after cities (as in the Hyundai Tucson?)
care what a car is called as long as it does it's job but does
