nice one! 1988+, the trim looks like LX. -- Last edit: 2011-11-24 16:13:56 |

Designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro. |

And it was derived by Renault 25, one of my favourite cars. The passenger cell and doors are the same. -- Last edit: 2011-11-24 16:52:53 |

Sure about the doors? They look different. Anyway the final effect, from the main pic angle, is quite SAABish (9000) to me. If antp likes this one, it will be confirmed. -- Last edit: 2011-11-24 18:33:14 |

When I first saw that car when it was new, I like to styling. When I asked the dealer about those cars if they offer manual transmission. He says they only available in automatic transmission When I got the recent article on Cheap Wheels (http://forum.imcdb.org/forum_topic-6011-39113.html#p39113) they mentioned that they did offer manual transmission |

Why are you angry? As you know this fact now, go around and look for one. The few survivors are for sure not expensive. |

^Not many survivor out there with manual transmission I have seen junked cars with rarer base manual transmission out there due to our affair with automatic transmission -- Last edit: 2011-11-24 19:03:28 |

I heard only about version with automatic transmission,and with only one engine:3.0 litre V6.But is not sure,most of all with AMC/Renault products...For example any source not mentioned Turbodiesel version of Renault Medallion,but i seen this version in Poland,as taxi,and I talked with user of this car.Car was absolutely original...I was interested of U.S version of Renaults,because my father was the owner of 1988 Medallion DL,and my sister had 1988 Alliance L (2doors sedan). |

The doors are not exactly the same, ie they are not interchangeable between the R25 and the Premier. However, they have the same structure and close on the same frame. The Saab 9000 was part of the project "Tipo 4", a collaboration between Fiat Group and Saab, and its doors are the same as the Fiat Croma and Lancia Thema. |

Yes, this I knew, SAAB and Eagle were not related, but still similar at some angles. |

The LX for, I believe, 1988 and 1989 only came standard with the 2.5 AMC 4-cylinder. |

Oh,yes.I forgot about 2,5 engine. |
