Cool! There's actually 2 white 3dr. RX's where I live. But I want the most elusive, the 85 sedan. Only made the RX in sedan form in 85.

Re: Cars that you want (now, past, or present)

I had an RX sedan. Silver turbo. Worse Subi I have had. Bad turbo would over heat. May have been head gasket . Coolest Subi I had was a charcoal Black GL 4 door multi port fuel injected 5 speed FWD witH all the options and it had dark cranberry red cloth interior . YES IT WAS RED ! I had dealers tell me they never saw that combo. 41 MPG high way . I would like to have that omen back ..

Re: Cars that you want (now, past, or present)

What I used to want: ( my tastes have really changed )

Dodge Stealth (kind of still would like one)
2nd gen Eclipse or Talon (yeah, yeah.. I know)
Nissan 300zx ( always loved the front end )
SVX (still want and glad I got it oppose to the top 3)
Hyundai Tiburon FX (not anymore unless I got one stupid cheap )
Mazda RX-8 ( love the idea of driving a rotary )

What I would be more inclined to purchase:

Volvo S40/60 or C30
Nissan 350z
Audi Quattro TT
BMW 328i ( love the compact feel of these cars )
Subaru Legacy GT 2.5i

My current dream cars:

Tesla Roadster
Jaguar XKR ( the blue one even )
Volvo C30 ( Polestar Edition )

....and last but not least the Laguna SVX now since I've spent a lot of time/money into building it up to the level I'll be completely happy with... I dream about it more often than not.

(IMO they were ugly too, but that's subjective.)

Just so different and you never see them. It was a cousin of Subaru. Have not seen one in a long time. Is it too late to trade it in for a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Tomaso_Mangusta. Of course we get these cars for free.
