I'm sure everyone has seen Velocity and Rotor's pics but here's a few I got

Those brakes.....mmmm

3/4 view, so so so good

So much engine. Glorious, glorious, AMG thunder-pumping, heart pounding, adrenaline rush inducing engine. And no $8,000 Carbon fiber covers, thank you for that opt-out Battery Tender.

Amazing interior, and good news to all you 6'4" Jalops, you will fit!

Driver of that beautiful Z24 sitting in the SLS, she is not 6' 4"...

Thanks to all who came and I hope we can do it again sometime soon! Special thanks to Battery Tender for letting everyone gawk over his amazing car and hope to see him again!

Beautiful car, nice shots. Battery Tender Unnecessary is a guy we can all look up to for inspiration.

Red interiors need to be more common.

Oh I agree, my grandmother had a '82 corvette stingray, black exterior and red interior, so so good and so '80's.

I saw an SLS on the road in Phoenix while I was walking....sounded like a freakin hurricane (in the best possible way).

That door sill looks suspiciously low. Maybe changed on the newer ones? I've been in a 2010 and it was REAAALLLY high.

Optical illusion I believe, they are still humorously high, no changes.

Had a great time, hope to do it again soon. I started degreasing/de-oiling the engine on the AE86 when I got home. It hasn't had a good cleaning for a while and I'm chasing down any other leaky seals it might have. Going to get the alignment done, replace some cooling lines, might need new seals around the cams, we'll see. Not much to do on it, just hard finding the time.

I understand, hope you get it all done. Is it a project car at this point or what? What do you plan to do with it?

It's pretty solid mechanically so the focus to begin with will be cosmetic/body work. Cutting out a few small spots or rust and welding. Maybe a paint job, we'll see.

Phew, I was afraid that they may have gotten rid of some of the supercarness by making it a little practical

Not going the Initial D route? Haha I think it would be awesome to have a really clean original Ae86, I'm sure there are very few out there.

Still on the fence. I will probably go the white/black motif but hold back on "Tofu Delivery" text along the side.

Being short and fat, I can tell you that it is hilariously difficult to get into.

Bring short and skinny, I completely understand. I feel like a Damn contortionist getting in to one
