Retro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Retro, both in popular and in legitimized culture, can be seen as an uncritical exaltation of the past, used as a weapon against contemporary cultural forms. |
 | | Retro is uncritical because it sees itself as a return to a lost authenticity, to basic values which somehow have been corrupted by later evolutions. |
 | | Retro cars are newly designed cars such as the PT Cruiser, Plymouth Prowler, MINI, New Beetle, or 2005-present Ford Mustang that take many of their style cues from (respectively) the Chrysler Airflow, the 1932 Ford, the Austin Mini, the VW Bug, and 1965-70 Ford Mustang without using any of the original technologies. |
