They are few and far between. Last one I saw, a few years ago, was on a trailor, and the front end was smashed pretty good.

There's one right around the corner from me. It appears to be in above average condition. The guy built a plane in his garage & is now building a second one.

That car looks incredible in the red. Was there any reason they only made it for the one year in that color? Kind of curious now.

They made it 92-96, but 96 was the only year you could get it with the Series II supercharged.

I thought that you could get the red in '97 also? Either way, I have been eyeballing that car now for about two or three months since it was first posted on Craigslist :sad5:
