Remembering Japanese cars from the past

Carina sightings: Carina SG Coupe AA60 with digi dash!

I found this great looking Carina SG Coupe AA60 on Cardomain:

According to its owner the car was produced in 1988 and imported to Malaysia in 1991. Being produced in 1988 means it has been catted with a sedan VIN since the coupe was discontinued in june 1985 or it was imported and put on papers with a different build date… Either way it is still looking great for its age! ;)

What I really love are those deep rims! They make the car look a lot more aggresive!

I didn’t know the AA60 came with a digidash as well, but apparently it could have been ordered as an option. It must be original since its redline is set at 6000rpm.

Also a very nice feature according to the owner: when the car reach 105+km/h, the dash board will ring the warning “ding dong” continues until u slow down… -_-. Definitely want one now! :D

And what is under its bonnet nowadays? Its 1.5 liter 3A-U has been swapped for a 4AGE in june 2009! :)

Can’t wait for more updates on this car!
