That's right. It's only there so it could be mounted on the JGTC version. They can't vary too much from the road legal versions
So JDM

I'm pretty sure he is trying to say that the BMW 5 Series is a goddamn beautiful car and should not be messed with those stickers.

Or that it isn't, you know, "JDM".

I'm saying that the 5 is a douchemobile and is not to be styled like a japanese car.
BMWs are nice cars to drive, there's no doubt about that. For their size and handling they can't be beat BUT they don't stand out from the crowd. Do a journey down the motorway and you can count the number of BMWs sitting up people arse's in the fast lane in the hundreds, they are everywhere.
I get surprised to be driving down the motorway and NOT see a BMW grill filling up my rear view mirror with an angry looking businessman on his phone. Maybe that explains the lack of indication from BMW drivers, they are always so pissed off about everything they snap the stalks off in a fit of rage that they're going to be late for their 10'o'clock meeting because they spent too long fiddling with their hair and making sure their tan matches their belt.
But I'm a massive hypocrite because I'm considering buying a BMW 330d as a possibility of a next car.
who gives a fuck this is the japanese cars thread idiot

I said Japanese District Market/Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters, a common term used in conjunction with JDM to refer to german cars
[QUOTE=sam.clarke;28855637]They would be a laugh to drive. RWD, weigh just over 600kgs and have a 600cc turbocharged engine pushing around 70bhp. Probably able to get the back end out on a damp day :v:[/QUOTE]
up the boost and make a mouthwatering 85bhp
at 600kgs that about 140bhp/ton. Not hugely impressive but still on par with something like a Ford Focus ST170 and you can imagine the type of knob who drives one of those crying when a car which looks like a shoe is keeping up with them.
[QUOTE=Ferosso;29187819]I thought it meant Japanese Domestic Market[/QUOTE]
it does, i wrote that not 10 minutes after waking for school
Plan to buy something like this soon; after I mashed up my other Mazda in a horrid drug-related highway accident. Almost dead in that one second of an event. I really miss having a ride straight from Japan.

Watch dem Initial D sonnn
I saw a red RX8 with black wheels that fit good, smoked lights, and black badges, actually looked pretty beast for a rx8
My buddys brother traded his 1999 Civic in and bought a red RX-8. Got to ride in it the other day and it sounds pretty cool. The back seat is really cramped though, pretty much all you can do is move your head left and right, and my head was touching the roof. I'm not even that tall. :v:
The RX-8's are beautiful machines.
It doesn't help that my old Mazda is trashed, is that there are two in my neighborhood that look so sick. I see them everyday and it makes me want to work extra hard just to earn something like that again.
I photographed a friends Mazdaspeed RX-8 once. That's the only RX-8 I ever thought looked good.

I want to buy an rx8, but only the 6spd's are worth it, the autos can't even get any power.
But I love them nonetheless...
Aftermarket rims make it look extra nice:

[IMG]http://cache-08.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/12/2008/10/Datsun-260z-classic.jpg[/IMG]
Datsun 260z. My dad owns one and used to race it all the time (heh, not legally though), however for a while it's been taken apart (for some reason I don't know why) and he's never had time to finish putting it back together. I'm hoping I can work with him sometime to put it back together, he says that it's an amazing car, and certainly seems so. I wouldn't mind owning one, and a Datsun 240z would also be fine.
Seems to be alot of Datsun lovers in this thread, which is great.
