^ I can't be alone in thinking the FD is one of the all time great car body designs.

 

[Eunos_Cosmo]

I think it is. Especially when you see them in the flesh. Perfect scale, perfect proportion, and dat ass

 

[speed junkie]

And especially when they have their factory (RZ) spoiler.

 

[Bram Turismo]

Not so much the RX-7 in particular as 90's styling in general. The Supra is another design that looks timeless. The R33 GT-R is another one I think keeps looking great.

 

[ND4SPD]

Ugh. I will own an FD someday.... I swear it's one of those car's that don't age.

 

[speed junkie]

^Final laps of the 1979 French GP? I think so.

Oh lawwd, if I had the cash and the space for a track E36 I would already have one. Also, that shifter is greasy as hell

 

[hemisport15]

Dakar yellow and non sunroof? That's a pretty rare combo too.

That is beautiful!

What I would be prepared to give up to ever get a ride in such a powerful Supra, let alone ever own a Supra myself

 

[homeforsummer]

For some reason, the Supra still does absolutely nothing for me. Never seen the appeal - don't find it particularly nice to look at, I've never really been a power freak so its capacity for huge horsepower does nothing for me, and it seems like a bit of a heavy lump too.

Now the FD RX-7, on the other hand...

I completely understand you, I would never consider a Supra as a track-fun having car either. But it's the first sportscar ever I was introduced to at a very young age, and due to the fact my dad has been restoring old FJ's in the past there's always been this Toyota fanboy'ing going on. I can't tell for sure why it's my dreamcar, but it just is.

And personally I find the Supra's rear one of the sexiest around, as well as an RX-7's. I just guess I'm a fan of the 90's bubble-sweeping lines the Supra and RX-7 show.

Anyway, time for some more pics and stay on track! 👍

 

[motortrend]

more supra!

But yeah, if we're talking 90s Japanese, BOW DOWN TO THE MASTER

I really like that black NSX. Good post. 👍

 

[Bram Turismo]

The NSX is one of those cars I think looks already perfect with a change of shoes and a slight drop, it looks that good. That said, I do love the pop-up headlamp NSX so much more than the later versions.

I'm of pretty much the same opinion. For me, the car is nothing but a great engine.

I WILL, however, own an NSX some day. Preferably the NA1 with the flip-up headlights, but either one wouldn't really matter.

Cool looking Z

Anymore of this one?

 

[speed junkie]

Totally ruined by the tire setup/fitment. I mean, what kind of hardparker messes that up? And a "TOYO" spray-on logo? On those low profile, performance all-seasons? So weak. At least his brakes aren't stock.

 

[motortrend]

Anymore of this one?

The wheels are not my thing, nor is the 2002+ front but overall it looks very mean and nicely executed

It's more show than go it seems, not very wide tires and not much more power.

 

[Rue]

Quite like the use of the classic S13 two-tone paint...

 

[Beeblebrox237]

^ Beautiful paint.

 

[motortrend]

I love that color scheme, but it tends to go better with more simple cars

 

[hemisport15]

No mention of lrg_soup?

Why is it so cool?

I think these might be a repost, but still worth it.

 

[CyborgGT]

A naturally aspirated Supra? Now that IS cool.

 

[motortrend]

I just can't picture an Mk4 supra without hearing blowoff and boost sounds in my head.

This should make it easier...




Microsoft even used it for Forza 4

 

[motortrend]

Sounds sweet, but it must be sort Of slow being so wide and making that much power. Still, it's pretty cool and different 👍
