I can't like this post enough.

On the offchance you haven't seen it already, Top Gear's website have a few articles on Nissan's Zama warehouse, including one on the R33 LM.

Your trip to the Ramen Noodle place while you was visiting Japan made me want to go immediately lol.. I'll visit it one day.

I want to import one.

We have the Merkur, close enough right?

Not a sedan, not a Cosworth, and not all-wheel drive unfortunately.

Can't beat a Sierra 👍

1970 Hakosuka. Saved these pics a while back from the Bingo Sports website. They tend to have just about the world's most desirable metal on sale at any given time. If you just dumped a load of money on me this is probably one of the first cars I'd buy with it.

Why do Camera's always look bad during the night times? Even if i adjust the ISO on my Note 4 to not turn on the "night mode", it always looks blurry and have weird effects. Sadly i have arrived late to record and take images of the cars that were there (There were also a "Traditional" Festival happening there but unrelated to cars).

C10 Skyline.

FD RX7

DR30

Not enough Citroen presence in this thread, wouldn't you agree?

In terms of trucks, Mitsubishi is very underrepresented.

I was seeing some of Jeremy Clarkson's old 90's videos from "Car Years", "Motorworld" as well as his appearances in his older Top gear. While watching a 1995/96 episode in UAE, i saw something quite unexpected:

When i think of Ford over here from the 90's, i always think of the Fox Body (3rd & 4th gen) Mustangs, Crown Vic's, Taurus, Expedition and such but never in my life i ever thought of a Ford Escort RS Cosworth ending up in UAE. I doubt if casual car enthusiast over here even knows the existence of this car.

My biggest question is: Where the hell did this one ended up by today? Junk Yard? Sold to someone outside?

Bit of an MX-5 dump. Including Instagram accounts for where I sourced the pics, for those who like to follow people.

And ermoshkin_'s NC, which is one of the nicest I've found

All are serving as a bit of inspiration while I'm deciding what I want to do with my own car.

^ Educating even a Honda enthusiast, thanks for that post!

More Honda goodness:

That came from a pretty good all-around post, with cars of all (JDM) sorts. Track day at Suzuka: https://stickydiljoe.com/2018/02/08/a-memorable-visit-to-the-famed-suzuka-circuit/

If I'm honest, the seemingly unloved NC is easily my favorite Miata. If I could have an NC body wrapped around an ND's interior design, I think I'd be in heaven. I'd love to get into an NC one day.

It's a tricky one for me. Furthest from the spirit of the original car, and I think both pre- and post-facelift it's an awkward-looking thing as standard. But of possibly all four generations it feels best suited to heading straight onto a track as stock (though only tried post-facelift ones - heard less good things about earlier cars), and with a few modifications, as that one above shows, it can look seriously good. The MZR engines are good too.

Another nice NC. Almost tempted to switch the NA for one Source: jedsab17

Mmmmm.....just yes.

Since driving the R.S.01 GT3 in Project CARS 2, I've grown to appreciate this thing. It's actually quite a neat car.

Lolz, someone bought a GT-R and removed the fender flares. What a ricer.

I've had 3000GTs on the mind, and thought back to this one I saw at a show. I love the early pop-up headlight front ends:

Is that a joke because everyone is putting flares on them now?
