I disagree, if this car was a fwd civic then yes, it would be completely 1000% tragic, seeing how it's a purpose built track car I'd have to say it's pretty badass, not tragic in any way shape or form. I'd even say it's pretty conservative as track cars go, no million color vinyls all over it or gawdy paint schemes etc. but whatever, like you said, everyone has different tastes etc.

I absolutely agree about track / street difference.

For a track car, anything goes.

I just think they don't look nice particularly. But then again they aren't meant to. They are just meant to go fast.

Never mentioned anything of the sort, just that the last 2 cars brought that one to mind. I am quite aware of HIN Furthermore, this kit (sans the wing) is actuallly the BMW Motorsports kit, made by BMW; or, God forbid, a knockoff! Technically OE/Euro tune



I enjoy this car very much!:




I'll post some JDM pics to make up for this silly euro madness...

Sad Note: All of the pictures from the first portion of this thread are missing :'(
I was lucky enough to start this thread with page one back when it was first posted.

Yeah, I have pictures of the car as well. It was from a quick interweb search, so possibly yours.

Aww, the color is what completes it for me

Classic. I thought it would be impossible for this car to be any uglier than how it comes from the factory. Well, there you are. Hahaha!
