Posting this simply because i was amazed at the size difference between the two cars. I remember playing with toy cars as a child and having some other kid wanting to play but with a different scale toy.This kind of reminds me of that.

The difference is still amazing compared to today's cars. In my small garage the 510 looks normal because the space is all cramped up with the car, tools, etc. When I roll it outside beside our dailies, it looks so small. The crazy thing is we have 2 compact cars (Hyundai Accent and Ford Fiesta), not even full size sedans or SUVs.
