Riceboy= beta

RHD= beta

Subaru= beta

Nissan 240= beta

Supra= beta

It's an R33 GT-R, not a 240 (not sure if trolling) cause that's the joke about it

RHD subaru actually got most positive attention from girls my age... I used to run Fast and Furious "get in my car!" game but after plowing through "it's a stationwagon" resistance

I've wanted a '67-69 Camaro for years, and might pull the trigger this year. I think the '69 is the coolest looking one. Seems obvious but, Alpha?

I'm sorry Fujiwara, you spent a lot of time and money on RHD that only appeals to other ricerboys. These dudes are climbing all over themselves here and all of them are hopeless betas. It may not be you but the other ruined it.

With the exclusion of the suspension that makes my ass go through my spine every time I go over rough surfaces or road humps is it beta or alpha?

Beta

I won't totally disagree with you there - my perception is not unlike yours. Luckily, I have spent no time or money on the Skyrine or Poopra as they're not mine.

Subaru looks like something a hippy science teacher who goes climbing on the weekends would drive. Maybe someone with kids. But I've never been keen on decals and bling blang. I've outgrown trying to drive the JDM-tytest thing on the block but I still find myself in the scene.

a "Fast and Furious Game" sheet needs to be written... when I'm done with the german Type 1 I'll resume JDM life

It's paid off next month, so it'll become more of a utility vehicle in the coming years. The reason I bought it was a) I could jam a 6' short board in the back b) go to Mammoth without putting snowboards on the rack and c) my live keyboard rig (including faux-Leslie speaker) fits easily into it. It's served me well, and certainly enabled to to have, IHMO, a fuck of a of fun over the years.

That said, what do ya' think I should buy next, el mechanico? Thanks!

That's what my bros say - I've been looking at some sports cars recently and I keep asking myself, "Are you even going to drive this thing, or is it going to sit in the garage after 3 months and turn into just another monthly bill to pay...I'd rather take that cash and travel!

Figured you'd know it. Maybe it's a European thing with love for Camaro.
