In the country almost called Maharlika........in the eyes of the 4-wheel road runners, the last 50 years was defined by the following:
1950s - the Willys Jeep.
1960s - the Volkswagon Beetle.
1970s - the Ford Escort.
1980s - the Mitsubishi Lancer.
early 1990s - the Toyota Corolla.
late 1990s - the Honda Civic.
early 2000s - the Toyota Vios.
What's your take guys?

I think that somehow the car that really defined the 1900-10s era is the Ford Model T.
It brought the transpo to mass consumption. Of course, after having it accessible to people made it possible for the automobile industry to evolve into what it is right now.
(atleast here in RP)
1960s- VW Beetle
1970s-
1980s- Mitsubishi Lancer/Ford Telstar
early 90s- Toyota Corolla AE92/Nissan Sentra B13
late 90s- Honda Civic EK(started the era of Variable Valve Timing engines)
early 00s- Toyota Vios
late 00s- Toyota Innova
