I loved that car! really wanted one. I think the SZ and RZ refered to one being a coupe and one being open topped.

Robyn is right

RZ was the rag top.

I remember seeing one of these parked on the grass at Donnington Park in the early 90's and I was gobsmacked

Here's one for sale...

I did a track day many years ago with Performance Car Magazine (now Evo) - one guy turned up with an SZ and preceeded to thrash it around the track all day Fabby car - made a lovely sound
