I did it, and on-time clue. And roger628 gets the win, although his guess of a ’73-’74 was a tiny bit off. But nobody really got closer, so it’s his. So while I get some fresh air and look for cars and other spring time sights, go for it.
CC Clue – Early Edition
– Posted on March 28, 2011
That looks rather like an early Chevrolet Sprint or the parent Suzuki version.
+1 Was gonna say the L-Body Dodge Charger from the 80s, but it was slopier up front.
I’m going to go with continuity with recent CCs and say it’s a Plymouth Reliant.
Edit: Amend that to Dodge Aries (or “Aries K”).
The closest I can get is a 1981 Dodge Mirada
Looks like a Mirada to me, too.
I rarely guess on the yank-tanks but this looks lot like the nose of an early USA Sierra – so I’m guessing 1st Gen Tempo
Mid-Eighties Subaru Justy.
I’m thinking it’s an ’88 Justy RS. There were no US-market Justies ’til the ’87 model year, and if this particular example has the mono-white paint scheme and 4WD, that would make it an RS. These were odd ducks – only available on the US market for eighteen months (model years ’87 and ’88), and only in ’88 with 4WD. They were redesigned in ’89, giving Subaru four different compact/subcompact hatchback models on the market, in five different body styles, inside three years. Fast-forward a couple years, and they all vanished – there wasn’t a Subie hatch on offer from 1991 to 2008, when the new Impreza lost the wagon back.
dammit!!!!!!
you always beat me to these! the Justy is my guess as well!
Suzuki SS80F
