Ahh yes, it's time once again to make a master list of all of the damned articles here—if only because it's a damned long week and I've got a whole pile finished.
- De Lorean DMC-12

- Triumph GT6+
- Chevrolet Chevelle SS
- Toyota Corolla AE86
- Austin-Healey 3000

I have to admit—part of the fun here is watching that big list grow like that. I'm sure the effect will wear off eventually, but I really get a kick out of seeing a big pile of my handiwork—even if my handiwork is merely a big pile.
Requests pending:
- BMW 2002
- Subaru SVX
- BMW M Coupé
- Mazda Miata
- Mazda RX-7
- Mazda RX-8
- Maserati Biturbo
- Merkur XR4Ti
And my own personal queue:
- 1961–1969 Lincoln Continental
- Buick GN/GNX
- Sunbeam Alpine and Tiger
- Citroën ID/DS
- Chrysler Conquest/Mitsubishi Starion
- Jaguar XJC
- MG MGB GT
- Lotus Europa
- Jaguar XJS
You should cover the Subaru SVX at some point. Partially because I have a love for the Subaru, but mostly because it's so strange looking!
Ooo yes—the SVX is a real weird one. I'd have one by now if only they sold them with something other than automatic transmissions!
They're out there with manuals. It's an aftermarket modification, but a common enough one. One in decent shape with a manual runs $5-8k (as far as I have seen).
Oh, I know—Sam Thuot had (has?) one. There's something genuinely funny about putting an Impreza transmission behind that 3.3L flat-six, though.
I've owned a Talon before, and I know what it's like to have an underengineered transmission. It's not fun.
