Yeah. The AllTracs were sold here in '88, and again in '91 I think. There aren't many of them - yet another example of a rare AWD turbo coupe variant coming over here.

Turbo AWD Coupe/Hatches that we got in limited numbers (off the top of my head):

Audi Quattro ('83-86) - the original
Mazda 323GTX
Toyota Celica Alltrac
Isuzu Impulse RS

...and then us, with the DSMs - which aren't nearly as limited by comparison. Of course, I'm exempting any of the exotics or ultra-premiums, which are limited anyhow. Can anyone else think of any?

It seems alot of companies are jumping on the awd band wagon but ,an awd car is only as good as it's differentials .

I think that Mitsubishi has to come up with a better entry into the sports car realm .

I love the evo and it's great that its a four door , I'll probably get one if my talon ever dies on me.

But then again well see what the future has in store.

I meant a new celica and/or corolla awd.
We all know about the gt-four and the celica alltrack.

They have awd echos, they should just boost those....

Uh, where?

Toyota = :thumbdown from me - The Celica is going buhbye anyhow. When they start making cars that are actually interesting, maybe I'll take a look again. The one possible exception is the Scion Tc - if they made that with AWD and supercharged, I'd like it.
