    Previous model Corvettes, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Honda/Acura NSX, Nissan 180SX, Pontiac Firebird, Mazda RX7, etc.

    AFAIK, there are no more brand-new pop-up headlamp cars. The craze has died down.

    No, they're not banned. They're just not popular anymore because they
    1. block the front vision
    2. not aerodynamic
    3. more parts = more expensive
    4. they look old school

    1968–1973 Opel GT.

    One unusual feature of the Opel GT is the operation of the hidden headlamps. They are manually operated, by way of a large lever along the center console next to the shifter. Unlike pop-up headlights, they both rotate in the same direction (counterclockwise from inside the car) about a longitudinal axis.

    The Jaguar XJ220 also covers its headlights at daytime, but it's a pop-down design.
