Those old Omnirizons had about the loosest manual transmissions I'd ever driven. Even the slackfest that was in the Escorts of those days came out more precise. The rest of the car wasn't as bad, at least once the VW engine was ditched, but still paled next to most of the Japanese brands of the time.
I'm not sure about the GLH and GLH-S. Neat packages, and quick for the time. Rare to see one these days for sure.
