look at Psilos' pic: the place where the A-pillar meets the roof is smoothed and curved, while an elan's is a bit sharper in profile.

Awe, you just don't want to give up your record ;) .

It's not Italian, this version was made in the 1960s or 70s and the model is still made today. When this model came out, the company also made a car with a name similar to a mythical bird/mammal that has four legs, a mammalian tail and wings.
