well before we got to the top 3, lets go over some of the things that make this car great. The handling, the steering, the lightness. It all contributes to a well balanced machine, now theres people who have come from many new and faster vehicles and fine that this is a fun car. Very fun. Granted according to those guys its lacking in power, and it doesnt have the space......
<15mins of rambling later> So the car is as practical as a daily as any other, although you have to live with the smaller size (a common theme with smaller cars, so its not so surprising whatsoeveR). Circling back to the topic of this video, lets identify the different aero bits that can make or break this car. <30mins of describing every aero bit, what they do and what advantages/disadvantages they provide> At the end of the day, the car is your car and you can modify it how you see fit. For me, my focus is on track performance so the aero parts that benefit me the most are the spoliers and some of the addon body styling bits. Without adding any more power these provide the best methods to increase track times relative to performance. Again your mileage will vary and you'll have different criteria and benefits. I hope you like this video and the information it provides, please hit that like and subscribe for more videos! I upload a new one every thursday so if you hit that notificiation bell you'll be the first to get more insight from me and my expertise in these topics on how to make your 86 better! Peace out homies! /youtube |

Don't listen to these guys Kevin. If they really didnt care they wouldnt feel the need to post. People on here love to shit on everyone else's parade to make themselves feel better.
I actually have some of these guys on mute! Thanks for always putting out content. |

Serious, I don't understand the hate. This guy is putting out quality, informative and entertaining DIY videos for us to enjoy. So what if we give him a couple of views and likes.
