I reckon that electric motor is probably only chucking out around 20-30BHP. For what it weighs, why don't they ditch it and save the weight. I know it's good for low-end tourque but let's face it... The point of a sports car is to drive it hard, so it's still gonna pollute a lot more than your average car + if you own a 'sports' car, you probably don't care about the environment. Like me :smug:
Instant torque. Better to have some ft-lbs at idle takeoff than none, no?
Here's the video I made for the team, of this weekends drifting.

I like how the 260z is just as sexy stock as modified like the page king pic
You guys are posting rare Japanese cars that most people don't even use as a daily driver.
How about some common ones.

I'm pretty sure that thing has a supercharged H8 in it.

I've never ever seen one so it isn't actually common around here at least :v:
I wonder why they took the image down.
It was this.

And look at a picture of a Japanese city in recent times. All of the cars are boxy like that.

Depending where you live, not such a great choice as a daily.
Do Datsuns count as Japanese cars?
[editline]25th April 2011[/editline]
Wait, of course they do.

On topic, I've been kinda wanting a 240 but man, the 200 is as nice if not better because of the angles.

Looks like an AE86.
s12 200sx, ae86, i cant tell the difference
All 80's cars look the same.

Not really :|
There were 3 body styles in the 80s; Wedge, Hatchback-Box, and Notchback-Box.
So any given ~30% of cars in the 80s look the same :smug:

u dumb?
80s cars all look the BEST
[QUOTE=lemon_lover;29436733]s12 200sx, ae86, i cant tell the difference[/QUOTE]
If I had an S12 with a swap and cruised around in it, and some dickhead was like "lol that car is stupid corollas are pieces of shit" I would probably murder that fucker.
Both of them are awesome.

Aside from the gas consumption, I'd think it would be a reliable car. That is, if I use it correctly and make sure I don't skimp on the maintenance.
Why not? I'd think the RX-8 would get me to work faster than any other Mazda I'd driven.
And with less MPG's
This elderly couple in my town have two 240sx's bone stock. One red, one blue. The guy also has an El Camino!
Wootwoot, finally got my CF Targa mounted (also from the "show your ride" thread):

I wasn't really paying attention to what thread I'm in. But from the brake lights I kinda thought it was an older Tempo.
What?

I... don't see the similarity. In either generation.
I've decided I want a Supercharged RX-4.
