Why is the question only for the n00b??

I think its great more Y-San San are getting fixed up..... NICE VIPCar and cost less then the LS. So hopefully more money in the pockets for Mods.

Welcome to the dark side! I'm glad you made the switch..it was lonely here. Haha. I remember several years back I used to tell my wife about the Y33 when I'd see one on the road and how it makes for a nice VIP car..but back then no one had one or had even thought about it. In fact most people didn't know what VIP was.
I agree that there's a lot of Y33's in the US getting modded, but there's also a lot of LS's. They are both priced decently now days...so why not. I don't think it's a noob thing or a trendy thing. The fact remains that the car, when done right, looks damned good.

uh.

did you mean welcome back?

then again, if you weren't on the dark side when he was, then would you be welcoming him back?

...

wasn't the dark side rotary?

this is getting too "jdm" for me.

Haha, don't get started on rotaries..I had enough of them...keep them out of my sight.

Since he's not from Hawaii and I wasn't active here back then I wouldn't have known. I had no idea he had a G50 before, does it really matter? Either way I think it's cool. So I guess..

I was planning on buying a Y33 from Seattle but stupid dealership sold it because UPS delivered my deposit late. I had all the paper work and everything ready to bring it back to Canada. Y33's are simply hot. even with stock body they can look so nice
