I like the orange, though I think it would look better with black roll hoops.

Honestly I’ve never had the chance to drive the turbo car. Maybe I should? Could you get used to the feeling of being chased by a Subaru?

Then theres this one, which seemed to get everything right except the transmission

Of course I love the orange, but that’s a gorgeous blue.
