Classics that never evolved?
Discussion
Which classics were a brilliant package in their time, that could/should have been developed further?
For instance - the original MR2 went through a lardy phase, but has since been evolved into the new model as a well regarded modern sports car. Compare that with the Fiat X1/9, which was killed off and never gained the engine it deserved.
The Lotus Elan died out, but the very similar MX-5 shows that just that sort of package works well and can be very popular.
Other examples?
