Are you saying making a 500 hp Element drifter is a bigger waste of money than marching out some 500 hp NSXs or something? I guarantee more people are talking about that Element than a lot of the sports cars. That looks like a fun project.

i hate parking because im scared of getting jacked everywhere i go. i got a 95gsr that i put too much money into. The dam thing was only suppose to be my beater but got more love than my 8. You know that with so many freakin cheap mods it adds up quick. Bump for Honda's!

at first glance i thought it would just be an AWD model with the front shafts removed (more to it than that of course) but they really went all out. that's nutty. they probably could have drifted easily enough with a transverse 4 cylinder.
