You can definitely see some second gen Talon/Eclipse there.
Image if this had come out in 95 as a 4 doors turbo AWD, DSM, a USDM Evo!

Never seen this concept, pretty cool! My parents had a 1st-g en Intrepid; great car, and the 3.5L V6 would not quit.

The LH platform was a nice piece of engineering, able to be easily adapted to FWD, AWD, and RWD applications, plus excellent space efficiency and a great ride. I don't know, off hand, of another platform developed in the late '80s/early '90s that had that kind of versatility
