I meant, I would be surprised if it was already used...
I would like to make it more friendly, but it is not easy to put all this links together...the best way for you all is to post them and I will check them.
This one is O.K.
Ghia Centurion and Karmann Typ 1 from 1965, both cars have different (asymmetrical) side views
Karmann Typ 1 1965 and   what car?    why?

Who will be next?

In a couple of weeks we will have a winner, unless someone can find a car to match with this:
Karmann Typ 1 1965

I don't want that a  Volkwagen wins this game so:

Karmann Typ 1 1965 and Lancia Aurelia B20 GT.

Both were designed by one coachbuilder (both Ghia) and built by another one (Karmann and Pininfarina [altough approx. the first 100 cars were made by Ghia themselves)

Allemano

Sorry, but it is still very controversial who really did the design of the Karmann Typ 1 as there was a very similar DAF sketch clearly made by Michelotti.

Very interesting! Never heard that story before.
So a slight change in my connection is needed:

Karmann Typ 1 1965 and Lancia Aurelia B20 GT.

Both were designed by one coachbuilder (both a designer who owned his own coach buider company (Giovanni Michelotti/Carrozzeria Michelotti and  Mario Felice Boano/Ghia) and built by another one (Karmann and Pininfarina [altough approx. the first 100 cars were made by Ghia themselves]

Let's try Lancia Aurelia B20 GT - 1967 Chitty Chitty Bang Bang 'GEN 11' - both cars used V6 60 degree engines (Ford Essex for Chitty).

Paul Jaray

we already had:
both cars have the same ...
                                       engine layout
                                       ...

DynaMike

I'll try this one:
Lancia Aurelia B20 GT      and    1952 Hotchkiss Anjou 13/50     because both had standard right hand drive even though they were built and sold in countries with right hand traffic...

Paul Jaray

Perfect! (sorry if I kept you waiting...)

Lancia Aurelia B20 GT and 1952 Hotchkiss Anjou 13/50  both cars have standard right hand drive and they were built and sold in countries with right hand traffic

75america

1952 Hotchkiss Anjou 13/50 and this 1925 FN 1300 Sport

Both companies made/make besides cars, also firearms

 :-\
we already had this:
Both manufacturers:      ....
                                          produced the same non-automotive object (traffic signs)
                                          ....

OK if you don't like his FN try my BSA Scout: both manufacturers used badges with firearms on them rather than cars.
Opinionated but sometimes wrong

Paul Jaray

I liked it as well, but it was already used...
This one is perfect!

Ultra

BSA Scout

Wolseley Viper

Both use the word "saloon" in their ads for the car.

"Honi soit qui mal y pense"


Click the pic....... Name the car

Paul Jaray

This is a new one, so it's ok...
(but since both cars are saloons, it's not so strange that this word appeares in both ads...)
BSA Scout   and    Wolseley Viper   both cars were advertised using the same word\words

If we have a Wolseley Viper, why not progress to an AC Cobra, both cars being named after a snake!
You don't need a photo of the AC, I expect.
Just in case you prefer one, here it is:

Paul Jaray

Cool!
(I ask for the pictures because I'm not after a simple list of cars, and it's nice to have some nice pictures in between.
No need for a Cobra picture if you don't want.  ;) )

DynaMike

AC Cobra    and     Gold Coast Coach Baroque    as both have a model name that refers to an art period...

Paul Jaray

Each day you learn something new...
AC Cobra    and     Gold Coast Coach Baroque    both have a model name that refers to an art period

Otto Puzzell

Gold Coast Coach Baroque and the Rolls-Royce Ghost

Each has a multi-part name containing (in English) at least one long "o" vowel sound in each of the parts.
You wanna be the man, you gotta Name That Car!
