Favorite car not imported to the US
Another thread got me thinking: I've always liked some funky cars, many of them never OFFICIALLY imported to the US. Besides a 930 during the grey market years or 959, what cars do you love and wish were imported to the US.
My list in no particular order:
1. VW Rallye Golf. I lust over this car.
2. Ford Cosworth Escorts
3. Cosworth Sierra RS
4. Renault R5 Turbo (I guess Sun International and a bunch of other import co. brought enough of these over)
5. Nissan Skyline
6. VW Golf limited 1989 (Supercharged 16V w/ 210 hp built by VW Motorsports/ not Wolfsburg)
7. Subaru Impreza RS WRX 2dr This was a few years before the 4dr WRX came to the US. I believe 1998. I remember seeing a Subaru RS in CT when I was living up there around 1998. I got all excited thinking it was the same as the ROW Rally car. Then I found out it had a plain 2.5 NA motor. Looked the part at least....
8. Audi Sport Quattro
9. BMW Evolution M3 (E30)
10. Audi Avant RS2
I'm sure I will think of more.
So what have you guys and gals wanted to import?
