I'll give you your point but since you already had 20 you shouldn't be answering Rookie puzzles!
Someone will no doubt promote you to Expert very shortly.
Well done!

remarkable car, isn't it?

Aesthetically a little challenging, but I love it!

[Allemano]

I thought about something different... 

[Otto Puzzell]

I thought about something different... 

Can you be just a bit more mysterious?

[Allemano]

Just take a look at the car! Why should I leave such a comment?

[Otto Puzzell]

No idea, really.

[Allemano]

I gave a big clue I thought, but I won't make it too easy.

[Ray B.]

Deutschmark?

I guess that your clues are (to me) as cryptic as Otto's.

[Allemano]

No, all I meant was that this car's appearance may remind you on something else. All in all not too cryptic!

[Carnut]

Hudson maybe?
It was a pity Borgward failed to survive.
In the 1950's they occupied the ground that BMW took over in the 1960's when they re-invented themselves - and look what happened to them.
Borgwards were very nice cars indeed but they were perhaps just a bit ahead of their time; if they'd made it through to the prosperous 1960's who knows what might have become of them?

No, in this case you've completely misunderstood me.
It should lead you to one of the unsolved puzzles posted by someone who is not always easy to understand..
