72/73..... Best year for the fusie imps in my opinion. Having said that, I think I need to back it up with the why.
First, the interior when ordered with the leather seats was timeless and classic. The seat design is a direct quote of the classic Barcelona chairs designed by Mies Van Der Rogh for the Barcelona pavilion for the worlds fair held there.

Second,
The front and rear ends were in my opinion the most resolved and clean design for that model run. Simple, classically referential to the previous slab slide model run but very unique I truly admire the turn signal treatment and find them very much about fuselage simplicity and the loop bumper treatment as cap.

Finally, they had the best dash design for that run. Simple and elegant. Simple rosewood appliqué with little in the way of filigree typical for the 70's.
