Why wouldn't they be?

They might but they look,and probably are, useless on the car.
 
I really like this look:

Simple, effective, nothing fancy. Only thing I'd remove is the windshield sticker as it doesn't add anything to the whole.


The side shot looks weird. Like the whole body needs to shift towards the back by about an inch.

I'm guessing both the lens effect and the fact that the rears are poking out cause that effect on the image.
Overall I think it looks awesome, but I really can't get myself to like these headlights, I much prefer the older NSX's on that.

Any specs about that one?
 
Back when Toyota knew how to make cars...

That's Saito Daigo's daily/street car, by the way.
 
I don't know what it is, because you can't exactly call the 300ZX a pretty car, but for me it is striking to look at. The Supra and 300ZX have been without any doubt one of my all-time favorite cars from the '90s.
 
It's not Orido's anymore?

That is the Ridox Supra, correct?

Also:


It's not the same car. Orido's car was dark blue with neon green Weds last time I saw pictures of it ( to match with the GT300 Wedsports Lexus he's driving)

For some reason I was under the impression that it was the same car, and he had it repainted red. I was pretty sure I read that somewhere. Oh well.

EDIT: A google search for Orido Supra, or Ridox Supra brings up pictures of both a red supra and the blue one.

Appears to have the same aero kit.

EDIT #2: The one I posted is indeed Daigo's car. I dunno about the one I just posted though.

EDIT #3: But then again (different number plate and green weds):

EDIT #4:It is indeed Orido's Supra. He has pictures of it on his blog, except is now has the new Advan RS-D wheels. The first one I posted is Daigo's.

Well they're both extremely similar, in fact I think they're the only two MKIV's running the full Ridox kit, with overfenders and all... But at 10k for the whole thing, I can understand why.

Biggest difference are the mirrors. Saito's got Craftsquares, Orido has Ganadors...

Oh yeah... :drool:


It was an LP570, now it's an LP1000. Only difference apart from that is that the 1000hp are measured at the wheels...

I wanna have lots of money too.
 
Isn't that the one that is now shaped like a ball of metal and carbon fiber splinters after a 200+mph rollover at the Texas Mile?

Nope. The old one was a 5.0 Superleggera. This is the 5.2, and one the owner bought as the replacement.
 
I know I'm reposting but this thing is just incredibly appealing to me and it's almost stock from the looks of it.

Yeah that was the look I believed to be the most recent. I posted some photos of it here a while back.
