The FD is such a beautiful car. I often forget how much until I see one as un-adorned as that one.

Time-less design. It will never get old.

Love that black Cappuccino, pity you can't cram much power into the little thing.

You could always swap a 13B in there, or an Hayabusa motor and turbocharge that...

But really, Cappuccinos make 1st gen Miatas look huge and bloated, why would you need that kind of power?

I got one for sale if you want it!

YESSS this is awesome!

That FD looks a little weird without the side mirror, though I do agree that it is a beautiful car

Ionno. Needs a roof rack.

The fad police says it needs a roof rack :shifty:

Was that car grey not long back or am I thinking of a different car?

If he does that, I would go with a rat look too.

I'm pretty sure they're sifferent cars.
Also, I don't know if I have posted this before so if I have then sorry:

Damn they ruined that GTR hard with those rims and headlight spoiler thingys.. Fits that M3 lovely though.

Exactly my thoughts, the headlight covers look weird and the wheels are 1-2 inches too big and don't suit the car that well, other than that it looks pretty nice though

It's not. The grey one was built by IND Style & registered in North Carolina. However, it does indeed look like something they would build, so it may still be one of their creations.

This

Is stupid

This however..

Is pretty awesome!

I think this car could be looking so much better with proper wheels..

 

[motortrend]

I'd rock that TL if it's on bags

I like the Skyline except for the lack of wing. I never understood the rage behind de-spoilering cars. Not to say the factory wings are always good looking, but removing them altogether always leaves the car looking like something is missing. Or like someone took a base model and did a "conversion" and didn't get all the parts needed.

Im quite the opposite. I think that RX7's always look better without the spoilers, same as most WRX STi's. Makes the rear smaller and more sleek if you ask me. I certainly like that Accord thats up there without the spoiler, and thats saying a lot as I don't particularly like Hondas.

Sarcasm is more of an in-person kind of thing.

 

[CodeRedR51]

What's with the FWD crowd dangling things off their rear tow hook? Didn't that start in the drifting scene, and is known as a "drift buddy"?

Thanks for the info.

I guess to each his own, it's just that I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority and I don't really understand why. I guess it's because I like a "Race car" look as far as general modifications go, and removing a factory spoiler for a "clean" look isn't a common mod in that world. I don't really know.


Any time I see it though it somewhat loses it's aggressiveness for me. An EVO without the spoiler might as well be a base Lancer for me.

No problem. I've been digging through their site to see if it still is a car they built, but it doesn't look like it.

Nissan 180SX
Very tidy car and well kept

Sometimes I like it, sometimes not.. But more important, a production 'race car' with a wing, well it's there for a reason..

 

[happycorey]

I would say in most production cars with large wings, are not useful. I mean like Evos, STIs, SRT4s, etc are there for aesthetic reasons

Well, you are wrong, those are functional. At least on the EVO's and STi's.
