Your mid-engined Pontiac was the Fiero. The model lasted long enough to have a major stling revision. I also understand that they're actually pretty good autocrossing cars, but I'll take an MR2 over one any day of the week.



Or it may have devolved into a Legacy coupe. It's a shame the SVX didn't sell, but at least it stayed what it was. If it had sold, maybe Subaru would have kept true to the marque's philosophy and kept hand-building them. But maybe they wouldn't have.

We'll never know.

I dig the SC400, although I've never driven one. I'd like to some time. That and a BMW 850.

Im a huge fan of the SC's. my friend owns one and its smooth even at 180k miles.
