Which bears a lot of resemblance to the new Fusion - which is not a bad thing.
 
It bears no resemblance to the Ford Nucleon I posted a couple of days ago. This is also not a bad thing.

I would have guessed a Toyota with a milder "eyebrow" appearance until I saw the Ford blue oval. The body sculpting looks Toyotaish... not a good thing in my opinion. Other's opinion may vary.

I could see that I guess.
 
I don't know what it is lately in car designs but I think folks have run out of ideas on what to make of the rear of the car. Don't have the shot of the back but from the side it looks chopped off.

1980 Datsun 810 Maxima. There was also a base 810. Engine was basically the same inline six as the 280ZX, iirc, and the base 810 even offered it with a five-speed. For one or two years there was also a diesel variant.

I saw a station wagon one of those yesterday, one of the dual badged Nissan/Datsun models.
 
Today I saw a ca. 1981 Corolla wagon, also uncommon anymore.

Yep, it's probably a Savoy. We've gotten so used to the predominance of Crown Vics
and Grand Marqs in police fleets that we've forgotten that in the 60sand 70s
Plymouths and Dodges were the most common patrol cruisers.
