Hmm, my list of cars... Let's see... 1974 Subaru GL Coupe. Preferably with a built EJ22 turbo in it and an Impreza drivetrain.

[B] Daaaamn straight! Hmm, my list of cars... Let's see... 1974 Subaru GL Coupe. Preferably with a built EJ22 turbo in it and an Impreza drivetrain. I figure it can be made to fit. http://www.ultimatesubaru.net/Litera...res/1974-d.jpg I'v had the same idea, It's the closest thing Subaru ever made to a 70's looking mussel car. It looks like it should be RWD but it's a Subaru so it must be made AWD, Talk about a sleeper. The only trick is to find one thats still solid enough.

I saw a picture of a '75 or so GL coupe for the first time about 2 weeks ago. My first thought: Damn, that'd make a sweet muscle car. I don't agree with the AWD though. I say RWD with a ER27 from the XT6 shoe-horned in. Big motor + small RWD car = big smokey j-strips! Like Porter said, I'd have to make it fit. Guess that makes like 10 or so Subarus that I want to own, maybe more.

yeah,yeah, that's what I ment
I forgot to mention the 88' sterling 827 lsi from rover and the alpha romeo milano..I thought those manufacturers were no more but in germany they are strong and alpha romeo is coming stronger than ever with there new 18something but your right the 93' typhoon is what I was refurring to. I don't like pick-up's as useful an economical as they can be thats why I didn't mention the syclone not cause I forgot...

Yeah, they were really thinking that it might go to production but alfa romeo decided against it for some reason... that is the sweetest looking car, i like the roof window thing... damn pretty car, and supposedly rather sporting to drive also. says like automobile and auto week magazine

Alfa Brera is now the Chrysler Crossfire.
I actually own my other unusual car. It is a 1990 Chrysler TC by Maserati. 120,000 miles, Italian leather, removeable hardtop, Miysubishi v6, Chyrysler automatic. It runs grat, looks even better, and is perfect for weekend drives with the top down. Plus it has a trunk that can carry two sets of golf clubs and a couple of small suitcases! I'd rather Subaru bring the SVX back with WRX Sti running gear. If they could do that and keep it around $25,000, I think that it would sell very well now. jimagoo |

I'm almost positive that the Brera and crossfire are not related at all. first of all, concepts of them came out seperately and about the same time. second of all the Brera was designed be Giugiaro and the Crossfire by Chrysler. also they don't look anything alike. Also the drivetrains are completely different, and i don't know of any connection between Alfa Romeo and Mercedes or Chrysler. The crossfire is essentially a MB car with some Chrysler flair added on top.
I don't think Subaru could afford putting a $33k cars drivetrain in what was a $35k cars interior, with both attributes being the more expensive part of the car, and sell it for $25K... but if they do, I'd sure as hell buy one

I didn't mean to imply that they are the same car. I meant since Alfa Romeo didn't manufacture it, the Chrusler's Crossfire is very similar in appearance.
