I love that. This car is all about balance. Balance of economy and sport, balance of power and handling, balance of aggression and elegance...

Exactly! I already have a plaque done up by @yospeed for me. My build is also about the feeling, not the HP or 1/4 mile times or even lap times haha so I think its fitting.

Also I wanted to make sure and understand that, 雪ウサギ / Snow Rabbit is rabbit that made out of snow like this



& not this


Just my 2 cents

Awesome, thanks! I'm still learning, so wasn't sure how a car's "name" would work. I know all Japanese family names are in Kanji, but sometimes first names are in hiragana. But the name of an object like snow rabbit (yes, the one made of snow, not actual animal) is not really a person's name.

I was hoping someone would mention this. Thanks again!

Haha yes, I agree. I will never be worried about lap times. It's all about that daily drive and cruising on the weekends.

If you want to go easy way, you can just write 雪兎. It's not wrong, specially if you're using as a name, you can use 兎 or ウサギ. Just like Jonathan vs Johnathan or Kristiana vs Christiana.
