    I guess the reason why I'm a bit more defensive towards the FD is because my vr4 is always parked next to one in the shop..

    I WILL say this though, out of all the 90's Japanese Sports cars, when the cars have gotten money pumped into them, when they DO get decked out, the 3/s IMO always came in last. I'm talking strictly cosmetically. Do you guys remember the goofy paint scheme on the HKS 3000GT from back in the day? Bee-R GTO, Bozzspeed, Kaze GTO? Most of the 3/s magazine appearances looked goofy as hell..PRM and zesty cars look meh...but there weren't many else...on the other hand, the wild Supras, RX7s, NSXs, 300ZXs and Skylines when gone wild, some actually look pretty crazy! The crazy 3s cars usually end up being WTF...

    some examples...






    catch my drift?? The 3/s really was the bastard child of the 90's supercars...
    Totally dependant on who does the work.

    You should check out the thai's GTO club Ie. YATT. They do good work with these cars.

    They do and most seem to think so because cianci are selling their designed stuff.

    Seems to me on most 3s boards people like what YATT does.

    but this is OT thread was about oem cars.

    IPD you were just waiting for an excuse to post a modded car.. and abflugs supra was one that wasn't a hit...from the first day I saw it it looked fugly

    All the rx-7s I posted above are stock body cars...except for the little lip on the red one on the trunk...BTW

    And yeah the YATT cars are an exception...and the only ones at that. I'm not super crazy about em but compared to all the other aftermarket modded 3/s cars...they're actually visually aesthetic.

    ^^Those are absolutely horrendous... Nice wheels (not Mustang repros from eBay), a drop and maybe an aftermarket lip is all any 3/S needs.
