    No way that two-stroke engine would make it here. Didn't they turn to VW for a cheap reliable engine? Heck, Mazda got an ear full with their rotary engine. They made a lot of power, but they were dirty, inefficient, and unreliable.

    One other one in Canada was the Russian Lada, an old Fiat clone. The guy who imported the Yugo in the US, first failed at his own "safest car in the world". the gull-winged Bricklin. One of the Canadian Provinces supported the company with their pension funds and lost a LOT. No cigarette lighter because smoking is dangerous. LOL
