Miata might be the answer here in the U.S., but in South Africa, die antwoord could mean something else entirely.
No longer ruled by the discriminatory Apartheid government, South Africa is now home to 12 official languages, three capital cities, some of the planet’s oldest mountains, sentie…
The Firenza looks like a fun little muscle car.
In reply to J.A. Ackley :
Size-wise, it's even a little bit shorter and narrower than the Camaro, so it has that going for it, too.
Gents - Great article about the amazing automotive contributions from a country that probably never crosses the radar of most petrol-heads! My favorite is the Perana, which I would love to drive someday. But, allow me to add one more South African homologation gem to your list - the Alfa Romeo GTV-6 3.0. They apparently only made 212 of these and only in South Africa. Classic Driver magazine ran a good article on these in 2023: https://www.classicdriver.com/en/article/cars/alfa-romeo-gtv6-a-south-african-homologation-hero
Enjoy!
Two things come to mind, the first is an article recently about owning Alfa GTV6s and folks dropping the 3.0 motor in them for horsepower and torque
Secondly, I've be searching for an Opel Rekord or Kadet to install an Ecotec turbo into. But an old skool DZ302 might be even more fun and keeping with the times. Something you could flat shift at 9 grand . I like!
Wow, how about an Opel Rekord Wagon with the DZ and a 5-speed!
just a dug addled thought 🤔
