Very nice.

I always was a sucker for wingless FDs with tasteful rims. >

I think it does look more like a Porsche than an fd. Have you done anything to the body because the lines look different than a stock fd. Maybe its just the pic.

It sort of looks like a porsche if you look hard at that picture. If you look at the outline of the car, it looks like a porsche b/c u can't see the door. After careful examination....I have determined it to be an FD.

nice projectors too! Great looking FD yo! And it does have a little porsche look to it in a futuristic 944 way. But add something else and it will change.

Looks very sleek. I like it. I also like the carnage going on in the backround. Good pic.

Very clean style. IMO it looks like an FD. Wonder why....... Anyways an FD looks better than any porsche could ever dream of. Just can't compare to the 7.

Spoilerless I have noticed the FD looks like a porsche, with a spoiler it looks all its own. I don't have a spoiler on mine. Nor do I have a problem with people thinking I spent porsche like dollar amounts on a Mazda. Just hope one of 'em offers me Porsche money for my 7. *drool* *smack* *sold* Then I'll buy two FDs and start all over.
