If a CRX fucked a 240z and had a baby. At the same time a Celica Supra fucked an E34 and had a baby. Then those two babys got together and made it. You would get this car.

i would swap a turbo ls1 in one of those

Fixed.



I bet those are like old Kragger rims, alum outter and steel hub/spokes. Not too fond on the weird 'windscreen' for the round headlights, but for the most part it's cool. Looks far more like a race car than any riced out *anything* will from 1984+. Well except for a Lancia Delta.

If you could find one for sale over there and get the paperwork for it you could bring it over pretty easily actually seeing as it's over 25 years old.
Wonder how much they cost over there?
