The car, for those of you old enough to remember French spy
movies is a Citroen - I forget the model designation.
It had turn signals up on the top of the body and adjustable ride height.
It was the ultimate gangster vehicle since it stuck to the road

headlights...they actually steered with the vehicle!
You've got to hand it to the French, when you ask them to
make cars and boats, they come back with spaceships!!!
(Please don't flame me, this is how engineers complement each other)
