The 1991 Norðwagen (Nordwagen) Valkyrja GS 6x4 had a few tricks up its sleeve… but then we forgot to give it a bigger shirt before feeding it some soup, and it ripped the whole thing to shreds flexing its all-new supercharged 3.5L flat-six. A full 400hp will do that, it seems. With this 9000rpm 24-valve all-alloy block stuffed fully behind the front axle, for 50/50 weight distribution and low rotating inertia, you get the precision of a scalpel with the swing of a sledgehammer. Tasked with moving 1471kg via all four wheels, and 1g+ cornering to match, you might say it properly schleps the donkeys.
Background
Dalluha Coach & Motor Works (DCMW) was founded in the 1930s as Dalluha’s semi-nationalized automaker. From the beginning, among its main jobs was making vehicles for the royal family and government officials. Unlike in some other lands, however, there was no restriction on sales of any model to anyone with the means to buy it, which in wealthy Dalluha meant that these early purpose-built cars quickly became standard production models in the Premium, Luxury, Luxury Premium, and other high-rolling segments.
DCMW then diversified, becoming rather like Mercedes insofar as its badge could be found without surprise on anything from a Unimog to a 300SLR to a bus, from a boat engine to a taxicab to a 600 Großer. Its core strength, however, has always been luxury cars. While the top of the lineup were flagships like the Al Sultan and Al Sheikh, the bulk of sales - the company’s bread and butter - were two four-door model series: the larger and more comfort-oriented Marqaba, and the smaller, more athletic Al Sayaadim. The latter, at times more properly considered a four-door coupe, eventually evolved into what we nowadays call a Sports Sedan.

The political fallout from the Prisman Missile Crisis in 1962/3 resulted in DCMW being unable to sell to the West. To bypass the embargo until it ended in 1990, it founded a Hetvesian subsidiary, Norðwagen, which effectively slapped “Made in Hetvesia” stickers on slightly restyled DCMW models, though it remained an open secret that they were really made in Dalluha. The Marqaba sedan became the Norðwagen Oðin, while the Al Sayaadim, by this point with a reputation as a four-door corner carver, became the Norðwagen Valkyrja.
The c.1968-1980 series began as a conventional FR layout, though later models were fitted with DCMW’s then-new all-wheel-drive system featuring a boxer engine mounted just behind the front axle, the crankcase integrated with the front differential housing. Between increasing safety regulations and market preference, these were relatively spacious and heavy, better suited to high-speed cruising than sprinting.

1970 Nordwagen Valkyrja:
The c.1980-1995 was the first generation specifically designed around this system, which effectively made it an FM4 layout. This time the comfort/performance pendulum swung the other way, due to increasing use of aluminum, a stronger pillared body design, and trimmed overall dimensions despite a slight wheelbase increase. The space compromises made it a less than luxurious place to be, and sales of the luxury GT and L models were slower than the previous generation. On the other hand, the S (Sport), GS (Grand Sport), and even the price-on-request GTR models moved off dealer lots as fast as their powertrains allowed. Which, with 0-100 over in 3.6 seconds… well, see for yourself.
So haul ass to the nearest Nordwagen dealership. Bring 30 large, and if driving one for the first time, a change of drawers.

1991 ARMOR KESTREL GT
Armor Motors surfaced from the end of the Malaise Era in a fairly solid position, compared to other domestic American brands. Armor had always been a small car specialist, and the need for frugality had rewarded the company handsomely.
Sure, everyone had been bitten by the muscle car bug in the '60’s, and Armor was no different. But since they didn’t make any cars larger than a Malibu, corporate couldn’t approve of anything larger than a small block V8 for production. Armor always had to find a way to squeeze as much as possible out of their engineering department, which became a strength for the company.
With the rise of the sport sedan market, Armor Motors decided again to flex their muscle. Starting with their midsize flagship Kestrel sedan, Armor placed their newest version of their small block V8 (this time a 4.4 liter SOHC unit) in between the fenders and mated it to a 5-speed manual transmission. The result was a 0-60 sprint in 5.7 seconds and a top speed of around 140 mph.
Armor wanted to make sure their customers got what they paid for in a Kestrel GT. Premium interiors and accommodating suspensions were all standard on a GT, helping to keep the overall cost down.

1991 Turból j50 DTM
Lore Dump
Turból Sports Cars was created in Southern California 1949 as a sports car flagship marque for the recently-formed American TURBOL Corporation. The name is a tongue in cheek mediterraneanization of the corporation’s name, indicating their Continental aspirations and giving Americans hungry for European sports cars a bit of faux-European flair.
(1958 Turból Caelus)
Turból’s early history consisted of producing a series of relatively low volume sports cars. In 1967, Turból took a first step into a more mainstream segment, unveiling the Centurion for the all-American pony car segment. While some fans feared the brand’s move into a more conventional segment, it greatly expanded the market for the brand and immediately became their most popular offering by a wide margin. To quell the concerns of the hardcore fans, Turból went to great lengths to ensure the Centurion would out-handle its rivals, and to prove it in motorsports.
(1969 Turból Centurion)
In the mid 1970s, the automotive landscape had changed drastically. In turn, Turból were creating a downsized replacement. As part of agreement with Homura, a Japanese car company TURBOL purchased a sizeable stake in in the late 1960s, the downsized Centurion platform was also meant to underpin a sporting flagship sedan for Homura in their domestic market. The new car, chassis code ca1, would be smaller and far more sophisticated than the Centurion it was replacing.
(1978 Turból Centurion)
That original Centurion, facelifted in 1972, soldiered on through the malaise era with minimal changes while Turból prepared the new downsized model. With the new platform designed to work as a 4 door already for Homura’s purposes, Turból made the controversial move to offer the new Centurion as a 4 door, a first for the brand.
(L to R: ‘79 Centurion 200, 300, and 400)
Three body styles would be offered: the 200, a 2 door hardtop, the 300, a 3 door fastback coupe, and the 400, the 4 door. The 4 door was marketed as a “4 door coupe” and the rear door handles were hidden in black plastic trim in the rear quarter windows to maintain a coupe-like appearance. Similarly to the introduction of the initial Centurion, brand purists were aghast that Turból were expanding their scope by introducing a 4 door car. And, similarly again, the model purists most hated immediately became Turból’s best seller: the Centurion 400 placed Turból squarely into the premium sports sedan space, a huge growth segment in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Turból saw this space as their new path forward as the automotive industry emerged from the tumultuous 1970s. A scaled down version of the Mk2 Centurion platform was greenlit as a replacement for the aging Spirena. This was known internally as the “Centurion Junior,” or j-Series.
(1984 Turból j30)
This first generation j-Series, chassis code ja1, was introduced in 1984, initially as just the 3 door coupe (j30) with a 5 door (j50) variant added the following year. Turból, ever eager to prove their models through motorsports, allowed the light, lithe j30 to share the spotlight with the larger Centurion in Group A-based racing series, now growing quite ubiquitous globally.
1989 saw the first update to the j-Series, chassis code ja2. With the introduction of the ja2 came the 90dd/90ed modular engine family, a twin-cam, 4 valve per cylinder inline family, mounted at a 45° slant in longitudinal applications like previous Turból I4s. The 90dd-20t 4 cylinder turbo would be the standard bearer as the updated model was homologated for Group A rallying and touring car racing, finally providing the j30 with sufficient power for Group A’s heaviest hitters. Among Turból’s factory efforts was in the DTM, a hotly contested Group A touring car series based in Turból’s largest foreign market. The combination of turbo power and Turból’s 4xAll AWD system proved extremely effective, and DTM organizers outlawed turbochargers in 1990, leaving Turból in a difficult spot.
Into the breach stepped the 90ed. An inline 5 version of the 90dd, it was initially planned only as a stopgap replacement for TURBOL’s aging OHV A-V6 family in longitudinal arrangements, but it would be pressed into service to get the j-Series back in DTM. A high flow head was designed with Turból’s cutting edge VAREX variable valve lift system to make a high revving 2.5 liter that could compete with the 2.5 liter I4s of the German competition. This high performance engine would power the transparently named j-Series DTM edition. Available as both the j30 or j50, the j30 would be the homologated model, with a limited run of 500 j30 DTM Evo models pushing the envelope further with a wider stance, more aggressive aero, and more headroom for power thanks to changes to the intake and exhaust manifold. After a 1 year hiatus, Turból were back in the DTM.
The submitted example is a 1991 j50 DTM. Since this is not an Evo model, its slightly milder 90ed-25v produced less power than the DTM Evo, at 212 hp. However, this still made for a very fast sedan for its era, powering the light j50 to a 6.2 second 0-100 kmh run, a top speed of 240 kmh, all with AWD, 5 doors, 5 seats, and the exceptional handling that Turból is famous for.

The 1991 SM47 Owlsa EX-SP
By Planar
Planar’s best sports sedan gets even better with the new limited EX-SP model.
Rotomax has improved their venerable RXO78 3.8L flat six even more for the EX-SP, now making 261kW- a whole 70 more than the base model- thanks to an all-new supercharger system, which puts its power down through a 5 speed manual and an exclusive limited-slip diff.
Externally, the EX-SP is intended to fly under the radar, like the latest stealth jets, with EX-SP badging, extra red trim, and exclusive wheels being the only external differences over the regular EX-S, making it that much more satisfying when the person next to you doesn’t realise you’re in a 261kW monster of a car.
The similarities to the EX-S are far from a weakness, however. With the same 185/60 R15 tyres, brakes engineered in classic Planar fashion to not fade in any circumstance, Planar’s dedication to advanced aerodynamics permeating the whole design, and an advanced EXAM variable intake, along with an advanced active sway bar system taken from the latest PASS.e2 suspension systems, the SM47 Owlsa EX-SP can truly hold its head high.
Available now for $35,800, call your nearest Planar dealer for more information and to book a test drive.

1991 Saberin Sabersprint Sinesia S-II
Soaura Works presents the 1991 Sabersprint Sinesia, this time in restyled S-II form. The FIS-supercharged twin-cam 2.5L boxer-6 pushes out 272bhp and revs to 7200 rpm. This rapid sedan pushes over 150mph with the hammer down, and sprints to 60 in 5.3 seconds. All while seating five with four doors to boot in a roomy, comfortable interior.
The hell is a 'Saberin'?
Saberin Motori is a Fruinian Italian (?) car company producing exclusively rear-engine vehicles. Originally founded to create a car balanced in practicality and fun, Saberin found themselves mostly manufacturing low-volume sports cars. Because of the rather luxurious coachbuilding business that came before the car company itself came in to being, these sports cars always had a taste of comfort to make them more than a weekend car. Besides the sports car element, the coachbuilding influence seeped in eventually and led to the Atarin line of luxury cars.
(Pictured: 1961 Saberin Soaura 2000 SO - do note this vehicle is very old)
(Pictured: 1951 Saberin Atarin - collaboration with moroza for QFC52)
Throughout its existence Saberin has only been a mild success at best and moments away from collapse at worst, though the latter has been a more common occurrence than most companies find comfortable. Things looked up with the release of the Solsti, a hatchback with rather innovative packing to allow both a frunk and a full-size trunk, along with being pretty nice to drive. A full-size trunk became a theme for the regular passenger cars as boxer engines became the norm within the company, leaving the small V8s for the Atarins.
(Pictured: 1979 Saberin Solsti 1500 R)
Things cooled down throughout the 80s, but in the early 90s a new wave of Soaura came to light, and its sister car, the four-door Sinesia. Though its nameplate wasn’t much known, at least compared to the nominally two-door Soaura, a prominent featuring in the TV show Notruf 110 gained the car and company publicity.
The Sinesia II facelift made the originally boxier 1989 model much more rounded and blobby. The Sabersprint S-II is a much more powerful version developed by the in-house performance division, Soaura Works. While the cars have never cornered on rails, perhaps out of necessity to avoid being awfully hard to drive, the rear engine weight distribution does allow for monstrously quick acceleration times, even if only rear-wheel-drive.
Sabersprint models have had a history of souping up the quirkiness of these cars with superchargers and thus allowing them to…sprint… to very high speeds quite quickly. Proponents praise the speed and acceleration, and opponents are quick to raise the rather lackluster cornering performance. Whatever it is, the Sabersprint Sinesia is here to stay. At least until it was replaced by the later four-door Soaura, which made the Sinesia practically irrelevant.

1991 Arrowline Longsword GTX-T
After the fifth-generation Longsword debuted in 1989, it was revolutionary. It marks the important turning point in entire Longsword legacy. That’s because the Longsword switched from rear-wheel-drive to front-wheel-drive for the first time.
Initially, there were 3 trims on sale, LE, LSE, and GT. But as always, being a sport-oriented brand, Arrowline later teased the performance trim for this model. The GTX was revealed in June, 1989, 3 months after initial released. It’s equipped with a High-Output 3.8 liter V6, producing 190 hp, paired with a 4-speed automatic gearbox.
With just a lowered suspension, 4-speed auto and very little area tuned, it wasn’t enough to satisfied the customers and enthusiasts. Fortunately, it was the same time that Arrowline was developing a new turbocharged engine.
The results is the Longsword GTX-T. An all-in-one car that blends comfort and sportiness perfectly. The new turbocharged Inline 4 is capable of producing 211 hp. Also, the old 4-speed automatic gearbox was replaced by a 5-speed manual to appeal car enthusiasts. All things considered, the GTX-T is one of the greatest sport sedan for the masses.

1991 Pretoria 25RR
The spirit of a sports car, in sedan form.
The third generation of the Pretoria released in 1990 with many trims. The top-of-the-line 32R featured a 3.2L I6 and a plush interior, resulting in more weight than wanted. In 1991, the 25RR was released. The name derived from the 2.5L I4, the “RR” standing for “Road-Race”, to celebrate the car’s modest success in touring car racing. This limited-edition model featured extensive weight savings: Forged alloy wheels, vented brakes, bespoke sporty interior, a precise manual steering rack, an all-aluminium engine, and a 5-speed manual gearbox. These efforts resulted in a insanely light 978kg kerb weight, giving the car a 0-60 time of just 5.4 seconds despite “only” having 167hp.
Production was limited and most buyers opted for the 32R, which featured more torque and more refinement for daily use. Regardless, the 25RR showcased the company’s pride for performance and continued to make track-focused versions of their models for decades to come. Adjusted for inflation, the 25RR retailed at a price of $29,000.
