Agreed, I enjoyed the hell out of these games right up until that ending. And however bad the ending may have been IMO, it does not negate how good the rest was. Heck I recently started another playthrough from ME1 just to experience that journey one more time.

Eh, why would I want a RWD GTR? The ATTESSA AWD system was part of what made the car so fast in the fist place. I'm with Blondude, give me an R34 Z-Tune over the R33 LM any day.

That's beyond fucked up. I will never understand how people could do this to an animal. I mean if you wouldn't do it to one of your friends, your kids or a family member, why the hell would you do it to an animal? I hope this bastard gets what he deserves.

And made from tungsten carbide, because normal steel is just too soft.

That's the thing about beauty, it's subjective. I honestly think that the only thing wrong about the car in the picture you posted is the color. The design of the headlights, vents, and grill give it a menacing countenance. Also the sharp angles make it look purposeful while the curves soften it up just enough for me…

Right now I'm hoping that Monogatari is as good as Bakemonogatari has been (I'm currently on ep2 of the 3rd arc, and loving t so far). Seriously, this is one of the best shows I've seen in a while. It's odd enough to keep me interested without delving into mind-fuckery just for the sake of mind-fuckery, the style is…

Speedycop would disagree with your last point :D

While it's never a good idea to ignore any idiot light that comes on in your car, ignoring this one will almost always result in needing a new engine.....sometimes you'll have that result even if you don't ignore it. For those not familiar with this symbol, it's the low oil pressure light and it means the moving parts…

Oh, it opens like a fighter canopy too :D

Re #2: the second point was addressed by the introduction of the R which added a jet fighter style canopy to the car

Probably like 2 since it looks like the kind of car that would grab it's driver by the shirt and shout "I'm like a tiny Japanese built Ferrari, HOON ME DAMMIT, HOOOOOOOOOOON MEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!".

Yeah I know about that one, which has a turbo 20B in it, if I'm not mistaken, and it's damn cool. I was more thinking leave the body looking as stock as possible and having it retain a mostly stock interior. It just seems to me that this is a chassis that would repond well to a high revving engine with decent hp, but…

I'd argue that bourbon, red meat, and injuries sustained working on cars does a better job of the first, but I definitely have to agree with you on the second. That is an effect that i've always been perfectly ok with.

Nope, I'm in Houston, so I'm a little further north thank you, but in this case, it's a moot point.

Hmm, wonder how much a roller chassis would run, and how hard it would be to drop in a N/A 13B in the back....course then I run into the issue of being about as far from Canada as you can get in the 'States.

Lol, fair enough. I think it's just seeing the thermometer in the car reading in the 104 range that's coloring my perceptions.

Less humidity and it not being over 100 freaking degrees outside? Seriously, I'm beyond ready for summer to be over.

I saw the P34 last year at COTA, and it's even odder to see running in person than it is in pictures. The engine sounds awesome though....as do most F1 cars from that era.

They didn't produce them through the end of the model run in 08? I didn't know that, though it doesn't surprise me honestly.

Honestly if they offered the wagon here in the turbo diesel trim that's coming out soon, I'd strongly consider getting rid of the mini and picking up the 6 for a dd instead (and maybe picking up a project NA miata to use as a fun car ).
