The Soarer was Japan's first high-performance specialty car of the 1980s, and offered 10 new mechanisms and features in a stylish and luxurious package.
The Soarer used a newly developed 6-cylinder 2.8 L DOHC engine, and 4-speed automatic transmission with 2-way overdrive. It had beautiful styling with thoroughly integrated body surfaces that gave it excellent aerodynamic performance. The Soarer also featured an electronic display meter and other advanced electrical functions.
The front, which exuded an air of stability, and the trapezoidal silhouette of the rear combined with side wedge lines that extended straight out from nose to trunk to form the underlying clean-cut 2-door notchback style. |
