What was the first production car to use the now common transverse four cylinder with front wheel drive?  I don't know the answer, just curious.

I needed a mod to change my signature because the concept of "family friendly" eludes me.
Just noticed that a mod changed my signature. How long ago was that?

I always thought the Old Toronado, but after that Wiki article I was educated.

Friend of mine back in HS had an original Toronado, it could burn the rubber right off the rims.
