Japanese car imports

I wonder if someone could answer a question for me. My wife likes the look of the FTO, so I have been trying to find out more about the models as she would like the best performance she can get. This should mean the GPX MIVEC but after doing a lot of research, the only thing I can find is that the GPX has the 2 litre MIVEC engine, and not that there is a GPX and a GPX MIVEC. Which is right, are all pre 96/97 GPX's fitted with the MIVEC engine.

BTW we dont want the GP vR which is apparently striped down of things like Air-Con.

Thanks

now then - theres the gs - gr and gpx

the gs is a 1.8litre 16 valve SOCH 125bhp

the gr 2litre DOHC V6 170bhp

and the gpx are 2litre DOHC V6 200bhp


gearboxes are either semi automatic tiptronic or manual

Thanks for that msdunn, it seems that is the case, I was just a bit confused by Romeo's post. So now all I have to do is find a GPX, in the right colour with manual gears, probabl;y some tiume next year then, lol.

I went back to Romeo's thread and had a look at what his is when I read your question - thought I remembered him mention it was a 2.4 V6 at one point, but maybe he meant a 24 valve instead as the auction sheet shows it as a 2.0. Or maybe I just need glasses!! He says it's pretty quick, though!!!
