Not a bad price.

Cheap ST car for somebody, or hell, even a challenge car.

For what it's worth, that's also a Caymen Special Edition. Should have some ballin' outrageous color-matched rims.

Had a '94 like that in "Sunrise Red"(pink), with the matching wheels.

Damn I miss that car....

Oh man... i NEED one of those or the "Iris." (Sweet purple color.)

Those Sunrise Red cars are RARE.

Good price.

I miss mine and I bet this one has a lot less rust.
June 16, 2010 12:05 p.m. petegossett SuperDork

I think the Iris color is more rare. I've seen Sunrise used on T-Birds, Cougars, Tempo/Topaz, non-GT Escorts...hell they probably put it on F-150s too.

They should have cropped the photo a little so the parking spot just says "SERVED".

I've seen about 8 Iris Escorts, but only one Sunrise GT.

I had the POS 1.9L pushrod version of this for a while in the seafoam green... automatic...

it was still a great handling car... I assume a 1.8L BP engined version with a 5 speed would be a great little car!

Weird. I haven't seen an EGT around in a while, and after reading this thread on friday I saw two of the maroon-ish purple ones. It may have been the same car, just saw it twice in two totally different locations a few hours apart. It (or they) had the 15" sorta rounded, straight, seven spoke wheels.
June 21, 2010 8:49 p.m. petegossett SuperDork

That would have made it a '95, IIRC. I know my '94 had the more normal body-colored 5-spokes.

Pshaw... the 93 stock wheels are the best. The more rounded, sleeker 5 spokes.
June 22, 2010 5:48 p.m. petegossett SuperDork

The directional ones?

I always thought the 7-spokes would look good on a Miata. Maybe I should try to find a set...

Yeah, but there's two different styles of directionals 5 spokes.

93s had a rounder, softer, sleeker looking style. The rest were kindof ugly, in my opinion.

These are 93s.

I've got a very clean set for sale:

My girlfriend's stepdad scrapped mine.

Now we're just left with some black painted early "sharp" style. They're ugly.

FWIW, the 93s look GREAT polished.
