Ok, so performance might be limited, but this one is an Overfinch with a 5.0L Chevy V8, so it won't be sloth-like, but probably more brisk than super quick.

I just love the shape, noise and ridiculous fuel economy. For sale on PH too.

I'm not a huge "SUV" fan, but there's just something about those old Overfinches smile

Has to be the 80s 4wd rally cars ... Audi Quattro, GT4 Celica and Delta Integrales.

959 was amazing although it looked a bit dodgy. And can't forget the Imprezas for bringing more power to the people than was probably sensible.

There would be little talk of 4wd without this...




A perfect thing.

I predict this thread will just fill up with 90's jap turbos and RS audis.
I'll add some Jap Turbos (some are a bit newer though) and some other stuff as well biggrin

All these should be in the top 100
Subaru Forester STI
Subaru Impreza Cosworth STI CS400
Mitsubishi Evo X FQ440MR
Nissian GTR

Aside from the Jap stuff we have got
Ford RS2000
Ford Escort Cosworth
Ford Focus RS
RRS SVR
Volvo V70R AWD
Saab 9-3 TurboX

and as an oddball
Jeep SRT8 (a more affordable alternative to the likes of the RRS SVR etc.)
