-
Owner driven passenger car for general transportation. - Technical
-
Example of modern fibreglass body construction. L'avant de la voiture s'inspirait d'un design européen contemporain, tandis que l'arrière présentait une allure typiquement américaine. Par la fusion de ces styles, les concepteurs de la voiture visaient à créer une apparence " canadienne ". La Manic a été créée pour concurrencer d'autres petites voitures de sport sur le marché mondial du début des années 1970. On a cessé sa production en 1971. - Area Notes
