Smile RE Amemiya Greddy9 FD3S on cover of Option2 magazine - April 2002

For those of you that can get the magazine from a local Japanese book store, pick it up. It's got a beautiful cover and poster of the RE Amemiya Greddy9 RX7. It's the green one that was at the Auto Salon. Mmmmm, yummy!

For those following the sleek headlight thread, this FD has a lighting system that looks like a modified version of the RE set. It appears like newer lights were put in there.

I'll try when I get home from work. The poster is bigger than my scanner so maybe only the cover and some of the inside pics...

I hate show cars. As a matter of fact, I hate all cars that look like that.

Sorry it took so long, but here's the cover of the magazine. Geez, some people just have to hate on everything... then again, I just can't bring myself to hate anything that RE Amemiya does.

Also, note that the headlights within the sleek headlight kit. They appear to be different from the lights that are usually used for that kit.

LOL! That's messed up! The person in the photos from Auto Salon is a model! Not really impressive in any way, but the Japanese like their girls cute and not like Playboy Playmates, I guess.

As for the bumper, yeah so it looks like a carp. I'm cool with that, since the car is putting out 450+ hp, and I wouldn't turn down any FD.
