Too many body panels as well. Sometimes you want to feel all the elements; the rain, the wind, the mosquitoes, the pebbles projected by other cars' wheels...

Indeed, it begins to show the backlash doesn't come from the customer just for the sake of hating on the product or service. It is a genuine concern over the pursuit of something that could potentially ruin said product or service, as seen by the necessity of an anti-AI-generated-picture filter.

A shame it clashes with the fact that even DDG has an AI "assistant" for its searches... Though, in all fairness, it does at least allow for opting-out choices, which other platforms curiously omit.

Ah, I meant to say racing modes are planned to be added to the full version on release. I do know they are not available at the moment, but the driving physics do seem adequate enough for off-road rally-raid.

Perhaps it is a double-reference, then; design like a Polonez, lifted rally-raid vibe of the 20 Dakar car. That only makes the entire car even cooler because of that reference blend.

I am curious to see how racing will be implemented myself. You didn't see that in Twisted Metal...

Fumes caught me offguard when I first caught a glimpse of someone else playing the demo (in a good way, of course). I wonder how its allure will hold once more modes and other elements are added, but the potential is high.

Also, I believe the "Renault 20" is actually meant to be an FSO Polonez.

Between this and the Galant Lambda you shared a few days ago, this has been a great week for JDM Brown 👌

Curiously enough this Leone *is* powered by an Impreza engine, so in the end it still has a bit of that something to please the Impreza crowd...

More like a Leyton Cabin... (apologies in advance, I shall fetch me coat)

But what if, stop me if you've heard this one, we painted Porsches in the colors of a tobacco company? And if some pesky laws tried to get in the way of that, we could use a generic "RACING" text to elude the lawmakers.

I'd wager there is an uncovered gold mine there!

This is like a Simca 1100 wagon that was given a student exchange program to Japan and came back all the happier. And that in itself makes me happier ☺️

More like a caramel toffee of wholesomeness... But either description fits this lovely Sambar's duty.

Color-coded turbofans, headlight louvres, that gorgeous subtle gold detailing, a sound system for your bum... If it is not the best Z31 in existence, I would gladly like to know what can defeat it.

Easy, you make this guy the driver;

The only shame about the Sunny VZ-Rs is that they were never shipped with the N1 blocks*. The Sunny had a stint as a JTCC racer, it would have made sense!

*yes it is mostly a straightforward swap, but most N15 chassis owners know that. Doesn't make it easy to source a good block these days...

The Posh Devil(ish) Z. Beating you on the M25 instead of the Wangan, but always at high speeds!

Not even if the car was put in the Legendary Car section!

And yes, you can indeed paint it with a TVR "oil rainbow vomit" color hue to boot!

Because you know, it isn't showy enough on its own... somehow.

Turns out Wet Nellie had a grandpa...?

Camino-kun? Perhaps even Camino-chan? Either way, it is a lovely piece of mint (colored) motoring 😊

I must tag fellow Citroen enthusiast @arkeys74.bsky.social for this, as he will appreciate a well-cared-for Citroen family hauler.

And so do I, for it is extremely rare to see such a colorful spec on a GSA 👍

Rather bold of Sir Matchbox to not simply go with the red/black two-tone just to force our nostalgia hands to grasp their carrot trap even quicker.

Though that choice too could be intentional, as the yellow makes the car look like a Honda Beat... 🤔

At least she didn't announced "Boat goes binted"... That would have really inflamed Liz 🤪

It really is a "really fucking bad idea." Some of their beloved browsers run on Chrome, or a variation of it. Do they think the browsers will remain invincible if new ownership ruins Chrome from the inside out? (looks at Twitter's "takeover")

Throwing in my lot with this;

Gran Turismo 4 - GT is my life and blood as a car and videogame fan. Taught me to love the Galant VR-4;

TXR 3 - Great dramatic soundtrack, and you could engine swap a RX-7 into a Cappuccino;

C2C - Impeccable atmosphere, soundtrack, and the most polished OutRun game.

There is something to be said about both TXR games; the physics may not be the most tightly-knit (Zero's wild swaying and TXR3's floaty & boaty cornering), but the machinery is a dream set for JDM fans (with some great foreign machinery thrown in), and the atmosphere is great.

I wonder if that van's internals have also been given the Puma treatment...

And that would probably still be cheaper than sourcing a Tommy Kaira M13 for the job!

I bet the panels hold better than the lower fascia on our Indesit washing machine, which was broken a few days after purchase, too.
The closest I get to owning a K11 is the family Saxo having a 1.5D engine...
