There is an older guy in my neighborhood that has a US spec ae92 tucked in his garage, he never seems to drive it, but has the Florida "antique" plates on it. I need to ask him about it but Im kind of the type that has never felt comfortable doing that
These are super rare and weren't sold in the US, each one came with a 2.5 turn rack which was the fastest rack available for the AE9x-chassis, I was lucky enough to snag one of those racks for mine.
