Some cars are like certain pop songs: they become hugely popular before fading away. While there's no shortage of classic rock or 1965 Mustangs in America, some once-loved cars have become scarily endangered.
These are Jalopnik readers' picks for the ones that we want but increasingly cannot find.
Welcome back to Answers of the Day — the daily Jalopnik feature where editors take the best ten responses from the previous day's Question of the Day and shine it up to show off. Enjoy!

10. Isuzu Impulse (both generations)
Suggested By: nataku83
Why its absence leaves us longing: Isuzu never had a stranglehold on the US market, but the two generations of Impulses (and the second gen's Geo Storm twin) were pretty popular in their day. The rear-drive turbocharged first generation is more desirable, but both have become exceedingly scarce.

9. Merkurs
Suggested By: Jonee
Why its absence leaves us longing: Ford's attempt to peddle its respectable Euro-market cars in the US wasn't a smashing success, but they did sell a fair number of Scorpios and XR4Tis. They have all but completely gone to parts yards in near-futile support of their dwindling numbers. The Scorpio in particular is approaching total extinction.

8. Renaults
Suggested By: spectra
Why its absence leaves us longing: It's one thing to have a popular individual model fade into extinction; it's another to have that happen to whole nameplates. French cars in general are as scarce as bargain-priced grand cru Burgundy in the States, and after a long presence with some interesting cars it's sad to see how Renaults are essentially all gone.
