any other AWD coupes that aren't american other than the GSX 3000GT, and Talon, between 1995 and 2000?

Just so you know, the Eclipse GSX and the Talon TSi AWD were built in America, at the same plant...most of the internals are Mitsubishi, though. :)

Anyways, the only other Japanese AWD coupe that I can think of is the Subaru SVX, an oddball luxury-sport coupe that never sold very well. They are decently quick, but they only came with a 4-speed automatic, and it has a history of breaking quite easily. If you are looking for a sporty AWD coupe, your best bets are the three that you already listed.

Thuogh not actually coupes, Audi quattro A4s are nicely sporty, have good aftermarket potential, and are more reliable than the Subaru previously listed.

Yeah, the SVX is garbage...just thought I'd mention it since he asked. Stick with the GSX, if you want maximum performance. Audi A4 quattros are nice too, but I don't think they come as coupes. BMW might have made some all-wheel-drive 3 Series coupes, but I'm not sure. Mercedes-Benz C-Class might have come as an all-wheel-drive coupe as well, but I'm not positive. Based on the three cars you already listed, I'm guessing you're looking for a performance AWD coupe. If that's the case, just get the Eclipse GSX/Talon TSi AWD.

only problem is the GSX's regular maintanence, it's crazy high. I wish i could find a TSI in VA only DL's....Jersey is like the closest area. I was afraid that there wouldn't be any other. back to the drawing board. thanx all
