Fast+Furious? Its just got race graphics like all serious cars, have you not read the spec or looked at the pics?

Thats like calling a BTCC car a F+F car


A waste? By putting the engine in a far better looking and lighter bodyshell than any ford, fitting a serious rollcage, suspension, safety equipment, etc etc.

Yeah man, well thought out

Dont like the colours but as it was built as a demo car it had to stand out. After looking at the feature on it , it has been built well and loads of proper one off parts worth 12K easy i would say.

Wheres that Cossie powered Prelude Thunder Saloon racer thats been around for years?
Thats a similar sort of spec and car, so im sure the clever guys on here will slag that off as some boyracer F+F car too

And them F1 cars, god, all spoilers and wierd bodykits all painted in bright colours, and god, they cant even afford some 7x17in Compomotives and have to run on them little 13s

On a less pisstaking note. Its a drift car, a competition car, what serious competition car DOESNT have flashy graphics?

Better than wanking over some full interiored cossie on a set of Konis with Texaco or Tiger Stripe graphics

If it was a Ford it'd be bling, because it's a Jap looker it's shit and a waste of an engine that could have gone in a 1.1 Fiesta. Coffee, smell it. Perfect example was people saying that chav bucket Escort with the camouflage paint job and dodgy rear was cool

Sorry , but i dont like it either

I have to respect the quality and the amount of work gone into the car and i would probs like it more without the FAST AND FURIOUS stickers also , but just not my cup of tea ,,BUT i am over 18 years old so thats probs why i dont like it

Completely fuckin different mate , this is a std cossie engine and box dropped in an albeit well modded roadcar shell , the prelude is a hand fabricated shell dropped over a Group C spice racecar , powered by a Rouse engine and a DGB Transaxle in the boot !
I love the shape of these rx 7's , dont think the graphics do it any favours at all tho .

That is a cool fucking car. If you don't like the graphics and colours then fine... but the spec is cool!

Why people with slightly modded FWD Fords are ripping the piss out of it I have NO idea!

Its just painted and stickered up like a jap drift car thats all! I don't like that style personally but I can totally appreciate that car rocks. For Ł12k someone will get an amazing car and a TOTAL bargain

Yeah man, well thought out
Not sure i find or agree that its better looking than "any ford" thats down to personal opinion

I personally (and this is my personal opinion ) Don't like the look of many jap cars and imo they Date very badly. The Escort Cosworth for example is a very good looking car and will always be an Icon.

Awesome car I love it LOL. The only thing I'd change is those god aweful wheels! So many other and better wheels.
Other than that, I'd keep it the way it is stickers and all.
