I remember the GLH, it really did mean 'goes like hell'. A little Iaccoca humour.

And the GLHS - "Goes Like Hell Squared". I test drove one of those back in the day and it was one sick fast car!

Yup, back in the day those things were pretty awesome. Crude and rude, typical for the time. You just nailed it and hung on for dear life. Torque steer would rip the wheel right out of your hands. There was one other car that was pretty neat and nobody bought and that was the Suzuki Sprint, forerunner of the Metro. That little 3 banger had a tiny IHI turbo, I think it had 101 hp. In a car that light and small, it really made an impression. So tossable and fun to drive. Sure was a blast to drive, as long as you kept your hands on the wheel.

many people around me have coined my vehicle "special" as I am the only owner on my island. So I think Special Vehicle Xperiment would fit since it was such a short run the car can easily be called an experiment.
