Holy 🤬! That is one heck of a Honda.
But can't believe how fat the fronts are and how skinny is the rear..... :lol:
 
That's kind of what happens when you build a drag car...

But a street legal one? :yuck:
At least try to have a rear bumper that covers half of the rear wheels, or at least change the tires just for the photoshoot...... :banghead:
 
Oh and also:

Body is satin black; hood, roof, trunk and wing are gloss black. Very Darth Vader-ish. :D

Edit:

Moar Soobaroo...

Hot stuff, that first Sti is how satin black should be done. It's a really interesting effect, never seen anything quite like it. Quality post as always Fred.
 
9.87@154, and still street legal... if you take of the slicks, skinnies and 'chute, obviously. And trust me, hitting 140+mph with skinnies at the back and very small front brakes to clear the slicks WILL make you want a 'chute. :D

No clue on the specs just yet, sadly...

Oh damn that thing is the most evil looking Honda I've ever seen (and one of the most evil-looking cars I've ever seen too), its absolutely 9 secs. mean and clean as heck, incredible car Fred, thanks for the pictures!
 
The flat black subie looks nearly stock. I'm sure it's probably some kind of insane sleeper or something, but I don't really like when they take the "sleeper" idea too far.

The other 3 though. :drool:
 
Oh, my gawd. You are my hero. Midnight Blue Z. You oughta get some black wantanabes, rivet-on fender flares, too.

Alright man, thanks. Not much for those add-ons though. got yourself a hotrod?
 
No, not really. '88 Chevy nova, 4A-C, 78 HP.

No, I'm just a fan Wangan Midnight. (Sorry.) I think I would like an old Z when I can afford it. Besides...that color is just meant for that car.

Funny thing is that's a Honda color. They call it Electron Blue Pearl Metallic. Took me awhile to decide what to paint it. You can see my restoration progress here. Check out the paint section, there is a small in-progress gallery there.
 
I usually like those rims that are on the Merc but on the Merc it just doesn't work. Haha

Hachi Roku is 👍
 
Is it just me, or does the rear wheel look a bit demented in this shot?

I don't know.... maybe it was a mismatch rims. The rear seems to be like the one in the second shot, while the front looks like the one in the third shot. Yeah, but not the type of AE86 I had in mind. They could at least put those side skirts like the Sprinter Trueno or paint it black to match the front and rear bumpers. But really, the Americans fails to customize their hachi roku like the Japanese..... :p

V1P3R: The CLS just looks fine to me. 👍 At least its not DUB..... :dopey:
