Do you have trouble remembering birthdays? Do those special celebrations always seem to sneak up on you well after there's time for buy a gift? Well, that's certainly a tip-off that you're not driving a 1985 Toyota Cressida -- or at least that you're not using all of the amenities the Cressida has to offer.


This mid-'80s sport sedan really took advantage of the technological innovations of the late 20th century, boasting a digital gauge option with a bar graph tachometer that now looks about as high-tech as the "Back to the Future" DeLorean time machine controls. This well-rounded vehicle was a home run for the few decades it sold here in the U.S., and if its plethora of buttons didn't deter you from slipping into the cockpit, this angular athlete would really have you cruising through the '80s in style.


Take a look at this redesigned '83 Cressida through the eyes of the '83 automotive critic in the MotorWeek retro review below:
