I spent a couple of years in Saudi Arabia in the early 80s, and I can verify that I saw at least one Motion Camaro and one Macho T/A on the road there. Having seen one of each, there were probably plenty more there as well. The wealthier Saudis seemed to prefer specialty vehicles. Mostly this translated into AMG and other modifiers of Mercedes Benz, often with ugly gold wheelwell moldings and hood ornaments. But there were musclecars too, and lots of exotic Italian sports cars as well. I remember one particular Countach that was sitting neglected. It was two or three years old, probably much abused, and needed a bath badly. Looking back, I can see that I should have been shopping for cars, but I wasnt. Another missed opportunity.
