Test the body for aerodynamics in a wind tunnel for low drag coefficient and discard the name Ambassador totally. Nothing visible in the present Amby must be seen in this new car. I would call this HM Swank. The finish must be super deluxe - paint, upholstery et all. HM should know that Daimler Benz makes taxi models also as well as super luxury cars.
