You're right, I mean I do understand the point of it -- it's just the look to me is off putting. I'm more of a purist when it comes to it. I think that was something I left out when I wrote what i wrote.
I mean I'm very appreciative of the scene, if not for the entire enthusiasts we would not have what we have today. The AE86 sits special for me since it was the 1st manual car that I rode in (yeah I never drove one, but I never got a chance... my friend destroyed his car before I got a chance to drive it)
Anyway =) like i mentioned, not my cup of tea on His particular 86, but it's sick regardless =)
