Noticing the move away from traditional RWD sports cars toward FWD hatchbacks, Shromet engineers retooled the Mystic’s FWD platform to accommodate more powerful engines and independent rear suspension, offering a sports GT car with superior interior volume while maintaining handling and performance. the Result was the 1986 Dragon MK2. While the car was praised as a technical marvel, however it failed to attract either more practicality minded young buyers or more traditional sports car customers.
