    For whatever reason, Canadians buy VERY few econo coupes if a hatchback is available of the same model. I loved the quirky looks of the Tercel glassback. The coupe...not so much. The sedan...blech.

    Right, it was the Sprinter that was a Corolla, not the Starlet.
    I think I like the Sprinter better.

    Personally I think the 90s JDM cars look the best... especially the wagons

    Heres my favorite jdm cars:

    1993-1995 Lancia Delta Integrale Evo 2
    1990-1997 Lexus LS400 / Toyota Celsior
    1983-1987 Toyota AE86
    1996-2001 Nissan Stagea RS
    1986-1991 Toyota Soarer
    1989-1999 Toyota MR2
    1992-2002 Mazda RX-7
    1999-2009 Honda S2000
    1990-2000 Nissan 300ZX/Fairlady
    1993-1998 Nissan Silvia S14
    1996-2001 Honda Prelude SiR
    1996-1998 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution GSR


    Non JDM:

    1994-1995 Audi RS2 Avant (specifically this RS2 owned by Doug DeMuro)
    1982-1992 Pontiac Firebird
    1992-1995 Ford Taurus SHO
    1998-2004 Cadillac Seville SLS

    Yeah, the Monza, Skyhawk and Sunfire were sister models.

    Monza was the high performance
    Skyhawk was the sleeper
    Sunfire was econo box.

    I test drove a Monza with the 305. Didn't like it, felt it over powered the rear end. Too twitchy for my taste.

    My bro has a 92 Stealth R/T Turbo he's trying to get rid of. Took it to two shops and it still can't pass smog. I know one of the turbos is leaking.

    The Eagle Talon, Plymouth Laser and Mitsubishi Eclipse are the same. The Dodge Stealth and Mitsubishi 3000GT are the same.
