	GTR pickup - I just had no idea, and as soon as I found out I looked them up immediately and fell in love hard. Reading more, reminded by this, I can't work out if a pickup of this shape was actually produced or if they're doing this to sunny pickups but there seem to be several of them about. Either way, very cool.

	Corolla GP Turbo - I thought I was pretty knowledgeable about 80's and 90's sporty Toyotas but I'd never even seen one of these until lately!

	Had me wondering about Trabant coupe instead. Fig needs bigger dia. wheels & arches too, proportions no where near as nice.

Very cool indeed! I'd do your research on ST170s however . Back to the question. Honestly? A few things! Some I have forgotten about, some I have owned! Some however I have owned: Until I saw the car I never realised that a Toyota Carina Coupe existed. Which is why I bought it! The other one is my Mercedes. I knew manual cars existed few and far between but I never realised they did a 5 pot diesel.
