I believe that your link has already been used, Dynamike, but I'll let Paul be the judge of that.
I the meantime I propose another one:
Citroën GS and Vespa 400: both have been, at a time, the proud possession of my former neighbour, Yves Almanzo, who resided 66 rue du Clos Hutin, Clamart, 92, France.

I wasn't sure about the validity of my link, indeed (I got a bit lost in what links we've had until now...), but yours is really great, Ray

Ray B. · « **Reply #493 on:** July 13, 2009, 09:48:06 AM »

Yes, but it's phony.

There is no Rue du Clos Hutin in Clamart (although there is one in Evreux, Normandy).
Of course I could try to remember which one of my neighbours possessed a GS, and what other car was, before and after, his pride and joy, but I am too lazy for this.
By the way, I have noticed that these relatively old Citroëns have their unconditional lovers. In a village next to where I live, a man has about eight GS rotting in his yard, and I've witnessed that with the CX also.

It's not in the list above so it is valid...
About your connection, Ray, I can see that you are not a fan of this game, but I don't think you will appreciate in your (very cool but for me unaffordable) 'art and cars' thread something like "Hey, I know him, that's my uncle Paolo, He currently drives a Ford Fiesta"..

Hey, don't get me wrong, Paul: I have no grudge against this thread, and if there was some wit to my reply, it was friendly wit. I stopped playing at a time because I found it a bit boring to check all the already used connections (although you've remedied this). And, true, because I felt this was going towards connections as thin as the one I've proposed.
But I can appreciate a comic relief and I think I may have laughed myself sick if you had posted this "uncle Paolo" reply.

By the way: didn't you solve, and brilliantly, at least one of those "unaffordable" art and cars puzzles? Nothing is unaffordable to a good sleuth.

I't s fine...but it's easy to verify the connections from my list above, it takes few seconds..if the connection in your mind is between 2 cars, just check "both cars"...if it is something that they have in common "both cars heve the same" if it's about the manufacturers "both manufacturers" and so on...
About the consistance of them, it's up to you, you can prove your deep knowledge on a car (and someone really did) or just find something trivial...the only rule is that the connection have to define the car, that's why 2 white cars are not allowed (unless it was the only color available for they)...the easier way is to have a try.
1975 Holden HJ Statesman Caprice and 1971 Citroën GS both cars were available with a Wankel engine
Citroën GS 1971 and what car? why?

It may sound trivially, but think we hadn't that before:

Citroën GS and Opel G90:
both cars have significant narrower back axle trackwidths.

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #498 on:** July 18, 2009, 01:02:00 PM »

I think this 'Both cars have one exceptional technical spec' is quite different, so that's good!
Who will be next?
Citroën GS 1971 and Opel G90 -- both cars have significant narrower back axle trackwidths
Opel G90 -- and what car? why?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #499 on:** July 19, 2009, 04:49:21 AM »

Opel G90 and the Pininfarina Rossa. Both cars were winners of the Automotive News International "Concept Car of Year" award.
