We have a winner! '85 Corolla. I loved that little car. My dad made me switch cars with him when I went to Houston for the summer so I could have his newer Mazda Protégé (4-door economy car) while away from home. When I came home, he had sold the Toyota and bought something else... Technically it was a trade up for me, but I loved that little car.
It's hard to come up with a pic that doesn't give this one away. Clue #2 (same model, different car):
Thats easy... Toyota 2000 GT Edit...whoops, I was late and didn't "turn the page" to see it had been ID'ed already.
I can visualize the whole car but can't remember the name. (I have the same problem with people) I think it's German, maybe a Gumpert...something.
