Top 5 things I LOVE about my FD.

The top 5 things i LOVE about my FD.

1. the quick acceleration as soon as i hit the pedal
2. the cockpit inspired feeling. just looking at all those gauges make me feel like a race car driver.
3. the way the trip meter resets to 0.0 miles by itself everytime after i have drove it and then turn it back on.
4. knowing that this is one of the most sought after and hottest tuner cars out there (along with: skyline, supra, silvias, etc....)
5. the looks i get from those who know what this car can do when i pull up next to them.


please feel free to join in.

1. One of the best track cars ever made.

2. <Still> among the best track cars 15 years later.

3. Beautiful, pure, timeless design, right up there with the Porsche 911.

4. Fits me perfectly.

5. Don't see myself driving down the street five times in a 15 minute trip.

1. My car is now worth more than when I first bought it.... well, if it was stock.. LOL!

2. Most people don't know anything about these cars and can't BS with me.. except people reading this (ok.. some of you reading this).

1. The way it reacts to my input. It does exactly what I expect, and more. Wish my wife was like that .
2. The exterior styling is exquisite.
3. The feel in the seat. Feels like it has wrapped itself around me.
4. Believe it or not, the reliability. The car has never left me stranded.
5. The rareness. Nothing like it on the road, and so few around.

Great thread btw.

1. How much fun it is to drive

2. How many looks it brings even when it's parked.

3. That most morons don't have any idea what it is

4. The overall rarity (goes with above)

5. My shiny engine bay! Was worth the work and $$$.

1. Turns more heads than anything else Ive ever driven or ridden in...
2. no compromise interior design. Makes me feel completely connected to the car.
3. Oddball engine. good or bad, gotta love the rotary.
4. Rarity. I see more ferraris and lamborginis than I do FD's
5. It looks so friggin good in my driveway!


I absolutely love this car to death. I lusted after one for years, but stayed away knowing that I couldnt afford to keep one nice even if I could buy it. Now that I have it, I will never sell it. I truly believe that this car will one day be as collectable as a GT500, or maybe even a cobra.

1. The bad *** body lines, even without a kit.
2. The sound when it goes over 6K RPM's.
3. Cockpit like a racecar, wraps around perfect.
4. The way people look at it when I'm filling her up.
5. 255HP...2900Lbs stock.
