Stryker Highpower

The Stryker Highpower is a 2-door muscle car built by New Zealand manufacturer Stryker from 1993 to 2002.

History
Around 1990, Stryker began design work on an "ultra-modern" muscle car, which would put the Americans to shame. The success of the Superboss led them to build a new 5-liter V8 engine with it, which would also get installed in the Super Growler. Stryker wanted to further differentiate from other muscle cars by introducing a targa top version. The Highpower was one of Stryker's first models to be sold in the United States, where it enjoyed some success. In terms of pricing, it was positioned below the Superboss, and above the Super Growler. The car would get a facelift in 1998 and get discontinued due to poor sales, with no successor to follow.
