I actually just started watching the first season since I bought my BRZ the other day. I love it so far so much that I am considering something like ghost 86 or something as my Ohio vanity plates. Downhill drifting is pretty much 99% of what the BRZ and FR-S were designed for. The entire car was built around the idea of a low center of gravity and weight balance. Every time I think about that while driving it I get the biggest smile on my face.

Love Initial D myself, thanks for adding 'Hajime No Ippo' to your post as I goggled it and am downloading it now since it looks/sounds like it will be awesome!

Don't get addicted lol... I've re-watched the whole series maybe about 3-4 times. I've re-watched Initial D maybe 3-4 times as well. Never gets boring for me lol.

Enjoy Hajime No Ippo.:happy0180:
