Time to give away some points. You know the drill - tell me the name of the car pictured below and you'll be awarded a point  :)
It's not denial, I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

Looks like a long wheelbase Chrysler from the early 80s.
Possibly a New Yorker.
Odd grill, looks like 81 Plymouth reliant.
Definitely a "K" car.

Looks like, but it's not a Chrysler. Neither is it a Plymouth.

Maybe a Chinese Buick?
Still can't get the E-class Chryslers out of mind though.

Not a Buick, but a bit closer then the previous guess.

Its a Daewoo Imperial......... thats why it looks like a long wheelbase E-class Chrysler.
Manufactured 1989-93.

Yes, it's a 1989-93 Daewoo Imperial :) Based on the GM V-platform.

Strange that Chrysler didn't sue them for the name and design.

Your first puzzle point, mymokke!
