1987 Peugeot 505 STX Long Term Wrap Up

The Peugeot 505 is a large family car produced by the French manufacturer Peugeot from 1979 to 1992 in Sochaux, France. The 505 was Peugeot’s last rear-wheel drive car. The United States and Canada had their own 505 body. Notable differences were: gas tank moved inwards (now behind rear bench), with filling neck on rightside, different style quad headlamps, taillights (pre-1986 sedans), distinctive whip antenna moved from roof to rear fender (and changed to telescopic), larger bumpers, tailpipe moved from right to left. Fewer engines were offered, all detuned to meet more restrictive emission standards. The models sold in North America were: Base, “GL”, “S”, “GLS”, “STI”, “DL”, “Liberté”, “STX”, “Turbo”, “GLX”, “SW8”, “V6”, “Turbo S”, and in 1983 the “Anniversary Edition”, which was sold in a limited quantity. All North-American bound 505’s were built in Peugeot’s Sochaux Plant, in France. The Turbo estate version was unique to the North American markets. wiki
