By far, the best looking J-car, especially with the hidden headlights. It was my first new car and I'd probably would still have it except that I drove the hell out of it and did crazy things (like off-roading) that led to its engine blowing up (fire and convex dents in the hood) just 4 years into ownership. I got it up to 185km/h several times -not bad for its 96hp and 3speed auto trans. It was the car I took on a record 21 hour drive from Toronto to the Florida border on a spontaneous trip. It was also known as the crazy car thanks to the multi-coloured paint job, and toy soldiers glued to where part of the front bumper used to be. Must find photos!
