XJR-9. sleek yes, and wheel covers for smooth aerodynamics. I was 14 when it was on TV. I always knew about cars needing good aero. the Porsche 956, the Chaparral 2K, but what made me really think about it visually ? this one.

The "hippie" 917s were good for that, too. The graphics were more than they seemed.

Oh yeah those were awesome. However I never saw one until way after this period in time.

Me neither. It's just awesome to know how much people knew before most people knew what things were.

Oddly I was about 14 when the Olds/Aerotech came out.
I found the Olds much sexier than the Jag.
I was a weird kid though. I had a 928 poster hanging on my wall instead of the typical door stop Lambo or Ferrari.
