Yep that's it. I remember a red Adenauer in that commercial that I recognized in the museum.

That looks like a Golf Outback.

parking spot by explorerx4

every month, my company raffles off a spot in the executive parking area.
this month i 'won' the spot.
i never really cared if i won because i get to work so early i pretty much get the pick of the regular lot.
anyways, i shined up the fusion and parked in the spot, since it was going to be parked next to a row of bmw's, merc's and lexus, etc.
i just happened to see out the window where my car was parked, a couple of the execs taking a second look at it.
so now i am on a mission to have the cleanest car in the row every day for the month.
the weather has been good and every couple of days i use some quick detailer and dress the tires.

Thought this was interesting...window sticker on a nice W126 among the modern classics for sale at the MB museum
 
And speaking of obscure cars...my E55 feels like a compact after driving that barge of a 7-series for a couple thousand miles.

Besides 'barge-like', what else did you think of the 7er?

Great seats, really fantastic. The gadgetry is pretty easy to manage now...I got along just fine in German, and I am not fluent. Excellent huge nav system, integrated with the heads up display...something I now can't believe isn't more common. Cruised at the tire-limited 210km/h vmax without a complaint. Very nice car.

Good to hear about the gadgets, sounds like iDrive is now workable. I'm waiting to see the new 5er.

I saw an old Chevy Citation parked today, it was rather worn out looking with some dents, dings and paint badly pitted in the front. Cars like this are not unusual in Southern AZ but this one wore a current Minnesota plate so this car has likely survived some rust-out conditions but the only rust I saw was surface rust.
 
I noticed one odd thing. The badges on the front fenders read Citation II.
Anybody know what that's about? Aside from the early 80s X-Car the only other Citation I know about was the Edsel.
