@INEEDNAWZZZ If you ever visit the Republic of Ireland, you're likely to see far more Almera saloons than regular hatchbacks. And even the odd Nissan Tiida/Versa saloon.

I saw a banged up MX-5 Miata today that had a M Badge on the side like this one. I figured out it's known as the "M edition", which is apparently a limited production MX-5.

No, it's not talking about the color. The "M Edition" came in other colors, the one I saw for instance was green.

There's a Lithuanian drifter on YouTube called Norbefilms that used that car for drifting.I know, I learned about it from the article I read (that I posted a link to).
Ah, another BMW to learn about; the 318ti Clubsport. It was apparently a model made in 1995 in very low numbers.
Here's his first video:

MTX Tatra V8
Built by MTX of [then] Czechoslovakia with cooperation from Czech car company Tatra in 1991. Power (all 302 horses worth) comes by way of a Tatra 3.9L air-cooled V8 sitting directly over the rear axle and is transmitted through a 4-speed manual gearbox. Nearly 200 orders for the car were made and the company started a limited-production run of 100 pieces, but unfortunately the company changed hands in the early stages of production and then the factory caught fire--only four were built.
Is anyone out there aware of the drivetrain's layout other than the fact that the engine is mounted longitudinally over the rear axle?

I technically learned about this car a few weeks ago when seeing it in the event/showroom car thread, but I recently ran into one today. A Daihatsu Hijet.
update 7/10/14: (because I'm afraid of double posting)
Trampio Toyota Corolla Levin Race Car, I was looking at some racing mods on Gran Turismo 2 and I saw livery that looked like this. So, I decided to google it.

Guess how many cars I've learned about this week!
A lot, thanks to a fellow youtube that has been telling the origins of the GT2 racing modifications on my latest youtube videos plus he shown me a website that showcases the 1990s japanese race cars.
Why didn't PD ever bother modeling these in the later GT games?
