    I love this car. My ideal version would be a JDM version (Subaru Alcyone) Coupé with the 6-cylinder, the OEM turbo added to it, 6MT, analogue gauges and those crazy 80’s looking wheels with the square grid-pattern.

    If I understand correctly, Dolby did not make the stereo unit, it provided the noise reduction technology applicable to cassette tape players, that’s why you often see their logo on so many brands and models of cassette players.

    They were so out of time in 1991. Imagine getting out of a '91 Ford Probe, Honda Prelude, or especially a '91 Nissan 240SX and climbing into a brand new '91 XT6. It'd be like going back a decade.

    I remember seeing this car in my childhood years in the 1980's.. Same car used in the 1988 movie " Big" with Tom Hank's. Reminds me of the Mitsubishi Station used in 1982 movie " Cannon Ball Run ". Quirky and chiseled styling in my opinion.

    Actually those door handles represent a smooth aero profile suitable for EV's, preferable over those silly pop-out affair things.
