I definitely remember this car when I was younger. Had somewhat of a futuristic look to it because of the weird windows, but yes, somewhat ugly and did NOT sell well.

Orion ZyGarian

You people are weird, that car looks HOT. I love seeing them randomly around my hometown

KrazyRider83

not that they didn't sell..I think somewhere around 14k made it to the states (i'll get more info). Car was designed by subarua with motor & all, but had some input from mclaren. Window design was from mclaren, supposed to be beneficial to get minimal wind buffer & rain in when having the window down. My buddy had one, & it is very comfy, motor lacks the power, but pretty quick. You either love it or hate it, I personally liked the looks. All wheel drive was ok. Car does sit low, & back seats aren't so roomy. People have done a manual swap using the sti tranny. Kinda have to see the thing up in person, it's not that bad.

I couldn't justify a 4.5k+ transmission swap on a car like that.

A guy at my work drives a black one with a black interior. I think he's the original owner too. Its definitely is different. Personally I think its ugly, but not Aztec ugly.
