this is a postwar car (although it's nearly identical to the prewar version)=>

Citroen Avant from the 1950s.
 
For me the chevron on the grill gave it away that it was a Citroen.
 
The car sure looks more like a 1930s car than 1950s.

It is a 1930s car, albeit a fairly advanced one (the first mass production FWDer) but it stayed in production thru the 50s. The correct name is Citroen Traction Avant and a 1954 model was shown,apparently these came in any color you wanted, as long as it was black.

Looks like a c.55 Pontiac, but there must be a catch
 
The Citroen was technically known as an 11 or 15...very old fashioned looking when it ceased production in something like 1957, but very modern for it's introduction in 1934/

But... it looks like a miniature BMW 2002 with an old Corvair front end!

NSU 1200. They were clearly influenced by first-generation Corvair styling.

Yep it's a 1970 NSU 1200TT and, like the 2002, it borrowed heavily from the Corvair.
 
Now for something completely different=>
