The owner is Shin'ichi Okamoto from Sony , in essence the Playstation bought all those cars...
Okamoto buys these ferraris because of my support of Playstation, not to mention my 2 sony TVs, and is too cheap to pay Ferrari so that I get to drive them in Gran Turismo.

Looks good, but that's a bad platform to start with. It has the wrong celica engine and bad ergonomics. Has anyone ever felt hwo HIGH that shifter is? BLAH. Normal vanilla toyota...

More pictures.
Some pics from Mosport Raceway in Ontario Canada in Sept/07. I got my new 2007 Stormy Blue Mica 6 sp GT with Mazdaspeed performance package in Jul/07. Part of the deal was a reduced rate for a day at the track with other RX8's. Had a blast, check out the 260 pics of the day.

yea your right...not the greatest tuning car, but it sure can look nice if it wants too, but hey, JGTC made it work as a race car...cant be ALL bad (or maybe it was, and they just replaced EVERY bolt on the car...hmm...)

Not many decades could rival the 30's for amazing car design... It's time to play guess that car again Major props if you can just name the car maker of all of them let alone the model...

staying on the 35 sj:

this particular 35 sj speedster won the Pebble Beech show this year



that very car set a24 hr land speed record in 1935

someone in here hopefully has more info on this car then i do...all i know is its a morgan plus 8...and you can still buy this car brand new...some morgans have so much passion put into them, that their chassis are carved from wood...anyway, impressive piece of work in my opinion

Well, since no one else has posted it:


I will one day have one. I'll probably have to steal it, but it should be worth it!
