Only the predecessor Ami 6 saloon DynaMike wrote ..... circa 300 AMI 6 sold in the USA ... introduced in May 1962 and sold AFAIK, only during 1962 and 1963. The US version had different bumpers, all red taillights, different license plate lights and opening button for the trunk, quad headlights, different (round) front turn indicators and a different grille. from /vehicle.php?id=179945
LTD-Driver ◊ 2016-09-23 19:39	thanks for information! But you`re sure, that this one on picture is an 8 and not 6? I have googled both models and for me it looks more like an Ami 6 by the taillights But I`m no expert or enthusiast for these cars.... -- Last edit: 2016-09-23 19:41:53
