Lets bitch about 'Euro-styled' Jap cars

[Kel]

I have driven a 350z and and an r34 gtr. The 350z does not impress anyone more, trust me.

My point is, why do Jap car manufactureres make european styled cars to have to sell more cars? I thought they where all ready doing pretty good making jap styled cars.

Not trying to be smart with this question but what defines a Jap-styled car (as opposed to Euro styled)?

I wouldn't say the Maxima looks like the 350Z, however it does look a bit like the new Skyline from the front... nothing a Top Secret body kit won't fix... mmm... smooth

The FD RX7 and MX5 were both styled in America... so ummm yeah. There is probably a point somewhere?

the top secret 350gt is sweeet. nice gold te37's too.

I think the styling of cars went downhill after the KA laser. I mean whats with the KB? Those front lights just look all soft, as if the owner is a little old lady using a cheap, economical shopping trolley of a car to get the milk and bread from the corner store instead of the sporty, high performance car the KA was.

I'll agree the supras are looking a little dated, but I dont think very many cars look good from factory ... Add a mild bodykit, some lowering and a set of nice wheels and the supra is very tops. More so than most cars with the same mods I guess is what I'm trying to say. Urgh, personal taste I guess.

Also the new minis are damn fat (not phat) compared to the old minis. I saw one parked next to an old mini about a week ago and you dont realise just how huge the new minis are until you see them next to an old mini. Like literally double the size (note: hyperbole).

Anyway, even I dont know what point I was trying to make when I started typing this.

supra may be looking a little dated, it still manages to turn so many heads though. They still look a helluva lot better than a lot of cars on the road that you see everyday.

The KA laser was the end of the ultra high performance laser range. They went mainstream with the KB. Nothing beats the pushed-into-the-back-of-your-seat demon acceleration of the KA, dont even get me started on the torque of those cars.............. lol
