God machine

Gold two-tone Nissan Leopard (F31), pre-facelift version.

Does this count?

>>28465284
A better image of the side.

>>28465284
is this a japanese car? of yes , it counts

>>28465265 (OP)
>noooo this car is lowered you can't even go over a speedbump in that!!!

>>28465475
120y is the most Japanese car that isn't a Honda.
2 3

>>28465284
>Made only in South Africa for the South African market
>Fewer than 6k ever made
It's pretty cool, the drivetrain is wapanese so I guess it counts.

I have a Tamiya model of it and I've seen many examples up close. I want to own one so bad...

>>28465515
I would also love to pilot one of these and hear all 360 cubic centimeters of RAW POWER scream at 10k rpm

>>28465528
And of course I'd love to drive one of these.

>>28465475
>>28465484
See >>28465502 one of three SA Nissans with complete jap drivetrain. The other two are the 140Z and 1400 bakkie. GM also has a lot of South Africa exclusive cars, like the Commodore derived final generation Lumina. Ford and Mazda have a couple too.

Get the Hasegawa model of the MR2, if you want one.

>>28465265 (OP)
I just want to drive my miata again

>>28465515
Sorry, every unmolested example is now $30,000. The ones that need a lot of work are $10,000 minimum for a somewhat rusted shell.
They're all owned by boomers and superweabs so the prices will only go up.

>>28465528
Those are lovely but if you put a full size American in one then it already needs a tow truck.

>>28465265 (OP)
Unironically would buy one of these over an R34 GTR.

>>28465265 (OP)
its too perfect.

>>28465532
>>28465571
is the mr2 actually that hard to drive or are the snap oversteer claims overblown

>buy japanese car
>paint it yellow

>>28465733
Apart from being a fat ugly hybrid turd.

>>28465969
A bit difficult, but not "hard to drive". If you can drive a car with a relatively short wheelbase, then you will not have much of a problem.

>>28465265 (OP)
I want to ride this if you know what I mean

>>28466005
aka very japanese.

An S30 with a Y40 V8 swap.

MR2 Turbo. I've always thought they were cool looking with a cool powertrain. Id like to try snap-oversteering into a tree at least once.

>>28465265 (OP)
UZZ30 mentioned

>>28465265 (OP)
always wanted to find one of these

>>28466401
wait you have a soarer?!?!

>>28465733
Desu ne? I'd take the older one because I want no hybrid.

You faggots can't just post a car u have to post a JDM bodykit slammed version, fuck u

>>28467081
the rejection of hybrids is why everything is going EV.

Its always a Honder. HSV.

>>28465265 (OP)
My Galant, in fact think I'll go for a drive.

>>28467678
Oh hey, I took that photo.

>>28467678
It was a really nice clean car, had a yellow and red friend there earlier in the day.

>>28465265 (OP)
I've been really happy with my y33 for what its worth. I want to drive it, despite the auto box.

>>28467772
damn lucky you, can you show the inside of the car, the dashboard, please?
also v8, right?

>>28468498

>>28468503

nice its all clean, continue to take care of it. also, how is the driving sensations? is it easy or feel heavy?

>>28468198
I'm the one that asked proof yesterday you cutie. I saved your other car pic, it looks really nice congrats

>>28468647
Honestly amazed I didn't get a temp ban for that stunt. Back on topic, it's been a fantastic car for the last three years with plenty of cross country trips, relatively hassle free, really cheap wear items and parts. It's an absolute float boat and even with coil overs and a substantial drop everyone falls asleep riding in it in a matter of minutes. Everyone loves the seats. Money well spent.

>>28468632
Pretty boaty. It's really easy to drive smoothly. The slushbox eats any sensation from the motor. If it didn't have an exhaust, you'd think that the silent hand of god was gently pushing you out of the corner. They like to understeer more than oversteer (60/40 weight distribution, i think), but you can absolutely swing the back out if you want.
The absolutely deserve that GT badge.

Only downside being the steering wheel is on the wrong side.

>>28465265 (OP)
whats the difference between that and a regular American Lexus SC 300

>>28465265 (OP)
i want to test drive a Lexus LFA ive heard it is takes a while to get used to

>>28470495
Motor

>>28467834
And yet the E39 is the best sports sedan overall that there is, and the E92 is the last amazing 3 Series kek cry pussy

>>28470694
>mogged by a parts bin GM

>>28467834
This. Ignore the brown filth.

>>28469604
what are the pros and cons if I may ask?

>>28470888
>hella comfy
>you get something that's like a supra for 1/10th of a clapped supra
But
>parts are unobtaium
>all the rubber is dieing
>it will never be a supra

>>28471394
so it costs a lot to repair (if you found the unobtainable piece)? did you bought the car cheap or quit expensive?

>>28471461
Yeah. $500 for an alternator, $200 for a cheap fuel pump, 3k for all the suspension and drive train bushings.
I got this one off my dad, idk what he paid for it. But probably over 10k kiwicoins a decade ago.

>>28465265 (OP)
Give me ONE REASON not to buy THE TURD.

>>28471546
That's the best color, too

>>28471550
The piece of shit I posted has been in 3 accidents in its sad time on this earth. All female caused I'm sure.
