Now THATs an investment. Signed by Pol Wolker himself. Owned by Frankie Muniz apparently....

It's actually a pretty cool looking car, if it had smaller wheels and more low

call fake....

 

the real one had invisible brake calipers

 

 

some-one is trying to make a nice profit on it tho

Slightly related, would love to own a mint condition Supra one day.

Too bad the prices are doing R34GTR things 

[Leroy Peterson]

Yeah someone brought up the brakes thing.... Who da f**k knows.

I still don't get the supra thing.... I know the guy who bought Aarons old wide body shell. Gearbox and motor will set him back more than the the body and a full restoration will.

[emts]

so the OEM brakes on it were too small so they put one of those fake big brake covers on it to hide the tiny ones.

some-one (smartly) removed it at some stage

 

so yeah it is the real car, it's just of all the cars in the show that prob the lease attractive to own, 2l NA auto....

At the time of the movie though, all the Leroy types were fawning over it cause the JDM was too mainstream

Safe to say a combination of rarity / collectable and those movies are responsible for JDM sky high prices. No surprise that the vehicles with the most gained from it are those featured as heroes in the movie...34R, Supra and RX-7. S2000 has also seen a good comeback on pricing. Then again, Jap classics like Hakosuka, RX3, VL Commodore and 2000GT did it just fine without movie power behind them.

Apparently S2000s are front wheel drive ?

I do agree with them about it being nicer back in the day when a dramatic scene didn't involve crossing buildings in a car and the excitement came from who would win a race and who was cutting who's tuna lunch

[Birds]

Realization now hitting me that Brian's lunch was booty call code for shaved pussy

[Leroy Peterson]

If the script was smart enough someone would have commented on the booty call but instead we got "burger and fires for 2.95"

 

Am I still a Leroy type? I stanced out the Gloria last weekend. Didn't even get many efames

Not enough filter.

That’s why.

Am I missing something re: tuna on rye no crust?

[Birds]

Tuna = Mia sweats all day in that diner

Rye bread = darker than white

No crust = trimmed/shaved

[emts]

WTF world do you live in?

 

[UNR33L]

Birds is just thirsty 

[Leroy Peterson]

I bet he judges anyone ordering a tuna 6" from subway

Who orders a 6" anything from subway

[Leroy Peterson]

The wraps only come in one size... So I guess anyone that doesn't like wraps and gets embarrassed ordering a footlong?

Speaking of footlong... Might try to get a massive weiner in me this weekend. Chapel St is shit, but I'll make the effort for a giant hotdog

[Birds]

You could go to Captain America's if you feel like taking the next few weeks off work

I don't need a footlong to fill me.
