thought this would be a good one...so, is it an Omni or a Horizon?  |

In France Simca/Talbot Horizon and in the US Dodge/Plymouth Omni...with a 1,7 litre VW engine ! |

Plymouth used Horizon as model name. |

It's a Dodge Omni : Link to "memimage.cardomain.net" While based on the Talbot Horizon design, the US Horizon/Omni was built in the USA and not in France. Early cars from 1978-80 used a carburated 1.7 VW engine similar to that used in the US spec Rabbit (Golf A1). Beginning in 1981, they used the same 2.2 engines as the Chrysler K-cars (Reliant/Aries). -- Last edit: 2007-02-10 00:24:06 |

and why not a Plymouth Horizon? without the front grill it's kinda hard to tell since the cars are almost identical. -- Last edit: 2007-02-10 01:35:48 |

They were both horrible little cars |

Well, the car was originally conceived by Chrysler France, so it could be considered as a French car, even if built in USA (like the Japanese cars built in USA are not American cars...) |

That's not an Omni, is the Assan Fiat Spazio |

For me it looks more like an Omni than a Spazio... |

it's definitely an Omni/Horizon with a new Assan grill...it's just hard to tell if it's a Horizon or Omni. |

No, this one's definitely a Horizon. If you look very closely, it still has the original grill (but just painted black and with a new Assan logo in the center) and that grill makes that the Plymouth version http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2777/4215015610_e9132d14b4.jpg the Dodge version would've looked more like this Link to "1.bp.blogspot.com" |

It is a Dodge Omni with "Assan" front grill, trying to look like a Fiat 147 Spazio. But, the scene was recorded in USA, not in Argentina |

this looks like a 1984-1986 ( time of movie ) Horizon grille being blacked out and the Pentastar covered.. Omni's grille is not like this Omni Link to "oldcarbrochures.org" ( 1989 pictured but they had the same from 1984 to 1990 ) Horizon Link to "oldcarbrochures.org" 1982 would be like this for Horizon , for Omni |
