Nice car. Thanks for sharing, but you're totally right, this is definitely in the wrong section. It actually doesn't even belong in any of these Evo boards.

This is one of the most interesting cars i have ever seen. I've only seen MAYBE 3 in my entire lifetime and the 1st time in 08. At the time it was made the specs of the car were just amazing which would definitely earn a spot in my collection if i had one.

Def an interesting car. 230hp and all wheel drive is nothing to complain about back then. ive only seen one back in college. Sounds like it would be an awesome car to build.

I worked at a car dealership during cash for clunkers and I saw no less than 2 of these that went to the crushers traded in for honda's. Made me sad they were cool cars.

Saw one of these on sales once. IMO they're really nice and I would not mind owning a built one. They kinda of look like 1g dsm's

I saw my first one a few weeks ago in South Jersey, I had to do a double take because I was like what the helllll is that? Italdesign also produced the Nazca C2, which was designed for BMW.

Aside from being a Subaru, awesome looking car It captures that whole 80's/post 80s "whats the future gonna be like" angular/round look.

Link to the Nazca for those who wanna see how cool this thing looks, especially for its time. http://www.subito.net/xx96/cars/imag...design)_01.jpg
