I think a lot of people said that about muscle cars. I think when my generation is older, we'll be collecting the SR20 S13s and stuff like that.

I don't think so wes. Muscle cars were cool even in stock form. S13/14 aren't cool in stock form . They have modding potential, but nowhere near that of muscle cars

My S13 was DAMN fun in stock form. It'll take a while for those to become classic, but they will. It's already rare to find one in near perfect condition inside and out.

Yeah, there's no doubt that it'll become classic, but the stock performance will keep it down.

I still wouldn't change a thing. This is one stealth b0mber that crusies with vault feel.



For now, I'm happy to have one of the few "surviving" Q's left.

Is that stock wheels and drop? or 20" FX wheels and/or drop? Photoshopped? The F50 look just right in that picture. No other modification (appearance) is needed.

Duy, I was just gonna say the same thing! Jason, did you drop it? It looks AMAZING!. That's just perfect in that shot. Perfect.

If they came that way from the factory, it might be a different story. But from the factory they have this horrible stance where the back looks lower than the front. But that one right there my friend, is a gem!

Nope, not just me. I just saw a brand new BMW 5 and 7 series. It looks just like that car, except of course the BMWs were in black(the best color for them)

PMQ, perhaps it's the new 3 Series you speak of...

I don't see it so much in the 7 Series or the 5 Series. Go look at an F50 in person and you'll see the difference.
