I love it, it's got a lot more sort of old school racing smell to it in a sense when it's a turd of a car as a base and the stuff done to it is all the right things but not outrageous. I for some reason reminds me of a 87 or so Nissan a friend of my dad did for rallye in the early 90's, it was also NA, plain white, BBS white wheels on it, no crazy wide stuff or so just stickers from local sponsors on it. It went like stink, no sound dampening, no interior other than buckets and dash. Pretty sure it was for group B but I don't remember. It was the wildest ride I ever had in terms of the impression it made on me. Ridden and owned much faster stuff myself since then but I'll never forget how raw and unrefined that thing was, and it was what made it so cool. Horsepower isn't everything.
