The video doesn't do the car justice Jio, I have to admit I was surprised at how good the car sounded with that exhaust on.

Sounds real mean in person!

Sexy never goes out of style. The sexy curves of an FD grabbed my attention from day 1 and still hold it when I see one going down the road; judging from the reaction I get, others have similar impressions. Other cars may be mean looking, but the FD is the sexy, diminutive, unobtrusive speedster that becomes a giant killer with the right mods. It is the ultimate combination of sleeper and looker. Despite F&F, alot of people still don't know what the hell it is, and I love that.

Every time I see a Barret Jackson auction I just shake my head at these big fugly albatrosses selling for $100k. Some of these fat balding mid 50s morons have no taste and way too much money, trying to recapture their (sadly pathetic) "glory days". I need to chop their heads off and take it from them so I can buy a fleet of three rotor FDs.

I was sad too. A guy came up from San Diego and drove her home back in '05. It is in good hands.

Love the wheels and hood on the car. They compliment the stock look nicely. Watching that makes me want to go for a spin, but there's still salt on the roads. Torture!
