Wow....haven't seen a NSX on our roads for quite a while. In classic Senna red somemore. Nice way to start the day

Original article link: https://garage36.wordpress.com/2015/08/11/clash-of-the-classics-porscheferrari-drive/ A couple of weeks back, i was invited to join in a local classic Ferrari/Porsche morning drive event and of course when such an invite comes in, you say “YES!”. Here’s a brief look at what went down. The little yellow 993 Cabriolet was the acting camera-car for the morning and i was happily camped behind the wheel with pilot duties. Kudos to the organizers of this drive for assembling together what i think is the largest convoy of old-school Stuttgart and Maranello sportscars our little country has ever seen, i'm guessing that took some bits of gentle persuasion. A trio of lovely white beauties. With a special shout out for that sexy Speedster. 1 of 2 remaining in Singapore. Speedster 2 of 2 soon joined in the waiting area. When i was a young kid, i used to think that Porsche 911s had a strange shape with a windscreen that just looked too upright, the Speedster changed that view totally with it's ridiculously short and raked windscreen, and i was enthralled. I remember buying a Tamiya 1/24 kit of one of these, it was a "Snap-Loc" model kit, for people like me with not much talent or luck for putting those things together. Slowly, more and more Porsches and Ferraris started entering the carpark and it really was a sight to behold. F355, one of my hero cars. Oh what a glorious noise these machines made when on the move. They're all about that bass, bout that bass... The first Ferrari i laid eyes upon as a kid. Been in love ever since, still can't afford one. While the Ferraris are just sex on wheels with many causing Love-at-first-sight syndromes, i find that classic Porsches and 911s on the other hand, sort of grow on you more and more every year. Another F-car we don't see very much nowadays, the 550/575 Maranello. 80s excess. Look at them strakes. Another 308. I want one so bad.

If you only have time to watch one short film today, make it this one. Well worth your time.

Tokyo Auto Salon 2012 - Old School Cool Compared with previous years' Auto Salons, this time, i did not spot many classics on the show floor. But those that were present made up for the lack of quantity with some quality showings. Retro favourites Rocky Auto showed off 2 JDM legends, an S30 Fairlady and a Hakosuka. Both tweaked, both insane. The Fairlady was jazzed up with a love-it or hate-it chrome wrap, ran a RB26. Rocky Auto's Hakosuka was constantly under siege by showgoers. What lay under the bonnet? Another RB26? How about a V8 from a Lexus LS400 (Toyota Celsior)? Purist stand back! Another car bound to give anoraks a heart attack is this 2000GT legend converted to run on electricity, complete with solar panels on the bonnet. Along the same lines as the 2000GT is this Subaru 360, also converted to run on batteries. Now that we are done with the horror of EV classics, here we present to you this beautifully lovely petrol drinking Kenmeri. Pictures just don't do these cars any justice at all. You just have to see them in the flesh. I wish to have my very own Kenmeri one day... This Fairlady is just beginning to have her youth renewed. Star Road's Fairlady sitting pretty and pristine. HCR showing us how wild an early Starlet can be. Phat wheels on a phat ride.

Recently, think, with my aging stance, started listening to classics, the Hooked one. choreographed by Louis Clark. Not the boring kind, but can also go fast wan when drive Enjoy!!

Can u remember these Japanese "classics"? Most of these are from 80s.... i felt that Japanese produce better looking sporty cars in the 80s compared to the cars of today... Don't u think so? Please vote for those u like...... Tank Q
