I think he' asking if you're joking because the US does get great v8 cars. We just don't get the Falcon or Commodore. Up until recently we got the Commodore, albeit as a rebadged Pontiac G8. The Falcon we never saw in it's modern form, but it's slated to be replaced by the FWD Taurus.

American RWD v8 sedans are a rare breed now.

Photographer had an S2000 drive around the FRS. No tire smoking needed. Good old-fashioned long exposure shot.

Sorry, my bad. I thought it was the FRS drifting around so I questioned the smoke. Then I realized that is not possible to get a still shot on the FRS.

Cool picture indeed.

Right. I'm mainly a writer, but i do some photoshopping. Admittedly, i'm a better writer than graphic designer. But i've attempted illustrating parts of my stories with photoshop a few times.
