anyone owned one of these before?

looking for abit more info on them, nice to drive? handling?

Been out in them but never driven one tbh. I'm pretty sure they where never famed for it, but never berated either so I would say average for a 1994 fwd turbo!

My friends had one for years, sprint blue 20vt it runs arround 500bhp and any issues its had have been due to him not being very good at working on it, they are a cunt to work on, everything seems to involve the engine having to be removed which aint perfect if your like me and does most of your work on the driveway

If you get one get it in portifino blue

leather interior is very nice, clocks are nice, engine noise from the turbo is nice, the brembos are really good but they feel very front end heavy so they dont handle great.
