1982-85 Régal GT
The GT was a small SOTA performance car series from Régal, showcasing all the new technological advances of the 80s. It was made of limited production models made primarily to compete in various competitions in Europe. It could be equipped with a variety of power plants using different configurations, thanks to the I6 WhiteOak MEFI platform, a single overhead cam with 12 valves design.

The competition-designed 3.5L 192hp WhiteOak engine included highly restrictive airflow throughout. The GT 3500 using that power plant mounted it transversely in the middle. It had stringent muffling and capacity requirement, which resulted in such a unique combination.
The GT 3500 configuration came with 2 doors, 4 seats, a 5-speed manual transmission, with a brand new mechanically geared limited slip diff, smooth hydropneumatic suspension, vented brake disc up front and solid disk at the back, a luxurious all-leather and suede interior, a brand new top shelf cassette player, a Régal first steering wheel airbag with enhanced security features all around, and the quality you can expect from Régal.
OOC: This was made for a live racing challenge that I ended up not participating in, hence the weird engine. I will however expand the lineup as I quite like this little car.
