1987 Renault Alliance GTA

This is one perfect-looking car.

The GTA was the performance version of the Alliance, sort of a GTI to a Rabbit.

This car isowned by a Renault collector for the last two decades and was stored in a heated garage.

It shows, it looks like it just rolled off the linein Kenosha, WI.

623,573 versions of the Alliance were built, either in 2-door, 4-door sedan, or convertible bodystyle.

A little over 5,500 GTAs were made.

The GTA was available only in Metallic Sterling (silver), Olympic White, Classic Black, or the Sebring Red shown here and they all had the same 2.0L 4-cylinder with about 95hp good for 0-60 times about 10.5 seconds.

The interiors on a GTA were a step above the regular Alliance with sport seats and a steering wheel from the Renault 5 Turbo!

These cars started around $9,000 and then you had to add options on top of that, making them pretty expensive for the time.

That didn't help sales either.

I don't know if I've seen one of these on the road in a couple of decades or more.
