Wow...

So, being Japan and the inherent cultural delay--late '90s, right?

 

[Heldenzeit]

I was thinking that too. "Man the 70's lasted a long time in Japan."

Heuschmid Saaaaaabs:

Haas and Hausser 480s:

And a kit that Volvo themselves offered at one point. Tasteful, though very few seemed to go for it:

Woo, I found more at last.
BMW 6-Series (E24) RB-Motorsport:

Chevrolet Corvette C4 Geiger:

Big wing, body kit and Blitz wheels. So 90s.

Color matched wheels.

I'd love a set of the Group A, Mesh and Type S wheels in Forza.

I'd love any new wheels in Forza.

 

[Sage Ages]

None of those cars have Blitz wheels though.

 

[LivingWithGames]

Found me some more 3-spoke goodness.

And for change, found one I discovered just now. ENKEI'S.

 

[Heldenzeit]

None of those cars have Blitz wheels though.

The red GTO looks like it has Blitz 01. Do you know what they are? Maybe an Enkei?

They're Enkeis. The Blitz have more spokes.

Enkei RS Evos I believe.

Blitz 01's for comparison:

 

[SVX]

Pretty 90s either way, though.

 

[Wiegert]

Factory RS kits:

That Granada Scorpio kit looked fine up until the facelift arrived at the beginning of 1992. Out went the '80s edges and in came the bulbous "Si" bumpers...




Some more scans from the 1986 German RS accessory catalogue

 

[VXR]

I'm quite partial to the Fiesta SI look, but that seriously doesn't work on the Granny. I'm loving the gold Sapphire GL, though.

Didn't I already post this in 3 other threads? This is Magnum Force, a 1978 Dodge Magnum. Possibly the only one to grace the cover of a magazine, this one being featured in Car Craft. Another 1978 was featured in Hod Rod magazine.

There it is! This one was from a 2003 issue of Hot Rod magazine. Numbers matching 400 cu. in. V8, supercharged, definitely that 2000's look.

You don't even need a brain to understand what decade this one's from. It's a 70's Vette.

Don't know much about this one, but god that Civic is something from Need For Speed Underground.

Never seen an EK on those wheels before. Usually those are on more vintage cars. Cool!

The EXA is perhaps the only car in the world where Skyline taillights actually work.

 

[Cale]

More three spokes

Turbofan wheels are soooo cool. I want to make a set for my Miata.

I had a set of CF48s once, but I sold them because they didn't fit anything I owned. I kind of regret it.
