Oh, there’s plenty of footage of them driving around, but then again there’s plenty of footage of kanjo racing and street drifting. As far as I understand it, if they’re not disturbing the public, the police pretty much turn a blind eye to it as they don’t want to create more trouble. Because Bosozoku is not a car…

I love the lunacy behind those cars, but it should be noted that the cars pictured are absolutely illegal to drive on the street. As to how they got to the parking lots in the first place, I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the drivers filed for a temporary permit under the guise that they are historical vehicles,…

People have buy the STI, Golf R, S3, etc. not because they “outperform” the Mustang in some way but because they’re based on a platform that’s more practical than a relatively large coupe. If I lived in less urban setting and didn’t have many outdoor-related hobbies (which requires hauling gear + occasional snow), I’d…

Kinda feel that all cars from the 90's get a pass when it comes to chrome wheels. Do I think they look better than non-chrome wheels? Hell no. But at the same time, if you were to put chrome wheels on a car, it’d be on one from this period. To me, all of these cars seem to rock the chrome pretty well, though I could…

Two biggest gripes about the design:

(Already fooled him once on the 86)

Not the most original grill out there, but personally I like a lot more than their previous attempts.

All I hear in my mind when watching that gif

In that case, why is the Taurus still around? Doesn’t seem to add anything for Ford’s (civilian) lineup.

I’d be surprised if there was a next-gen Taurus. For me, spotting a new Taurus is about as rare as spotting a new Maxima, another car which was eclipsed by its lower-tier sibling. The only thing the Taurus seems to offer that the Fusion lacks is AWD, but as you mentioned, most people are already looking at crossovers…

This isn’t a collection, it’s a portfolio.

To be fair, not many cars can match the revalue of WRX’s. Those things have basically become the Tacomas of the sport compact segment. A quick search of some local listings show’s the MkV’s have fallen off a bit, but the MkVI GTI’s are still going for more than an equivalent year/mileage Civic Si, so they’re not too…

Their cars have such terrible resale that they’re not worth buying new unless it’s killer deal.

that no BMW with more than six cylinders should wear an M3 badge.

Evo 9 Wagon

Does the Lamborghini Espada count?

True, but it could have a screamer of an engine that impressed even the most hardcore VTEC fans. And personally I thought the handling was better than average compared to its rivals at the time.

“Wimpy” probably isn’t the word I’d use, but as a big fan of the original Power Wagons, I definitely know what you mean. I really think it’s just the tires. While they look ok at some angles, that shot going down hill really makes them look like something you’d see on a faster trophy truck, not a 8,000 lb. rig with…

I’d say any V12 from the F1 cars of the 60’s. These carb’ed beauties had the perfectly blend of sound going through the revs, starting with a low rough bark and gradually shifting to a pitch-perfect shrill. Personally my favorite is probably Honda’s longitudinally mounted 3L in their RA273, though the transversely…

In some places like CA, having a vehicle with AWD (and M+S or Snow tires) means unless it starts to snow heavily, you can drive to and from snowy areas without having to put on chains. You can go on all you want about how your (2WD vehicle) with snow tires has just as much traction as an AWD vehicle, but CHP still…
