LOL!! Funny, though. I think this thing might be fun with a manual transmission.
Even funnier....I've seen two Aztecs this week and both were in immaculate shape. I couldn't help but chuckle.

No more manual for the crosstrek. What’s with those random yellow bits?
Too bad. Then it goes in the Aztec trash heap. LOL.

I didn’t even know AMC made a 2 door Matador-and with fake wood decals too!! Like a Gremlin on HGH!
I had this 97 legacy in white. I added 15” oem alloys off an Outback with 205/60-15 tires. The wheel tire combo absolutely transformed the rather conservative if not drab lines of the wagon to something very nicely proportioned. It was quite economical, extremely solid, a rocket in the snow, and proved reliable. It was a little underpowered with the 2.2L, but the 2.2 was a closed deck, solid engine that could be run hard all day. The shift feel … was interesting. It was stubborn back to me until I learned to listen to the feel and lighten the touch, and then it became very quick to shift. Oh, and I added a 1” spring spacer on the rears; these were known to sag. The ever so slight rake that came with that also improved the look. You can see in this picture, it looks tired…
I was following an Outback yesterday that had those yellow items on it. I think they're designating where the tow hooks are.
Not sure why they're also on the roof though...
The Aztec looked like it was created by 3 different design teams, none of whom talked to each other, so the final design was cut and paste from all three. There is no continuity or symmetry in that design. It is an assault on the eye.
...can't even remember what engine options the Aztek had.

Just another vehicle which looks like it was designed from a CGI video game. The angular black plastic looks like a 10 year old Drew it.
Most had the 3400 60-degree V6. I can't remember if the 3800 was available as an upgrade.
One bails out and the other one is never to be seen again.
In case anyone was curious what an Avalanche without all the plastic looks like…
I’ve always liked the look of the Studebaker Avanti.

Yeah - for early 60’s they were bold & fresh …
if I had my way and knew the engg manager and designer would like to kick them in the rear for producing such an ugly & hideous car at the expense of tax pay dollars (loosers went begging for handouts, why wouldn't they, runaway engg managers);
