Because it's surrounded by white knights that will forever argue about the (varying) amount of power the car has, the balance, and whether or not a turbo 13B is a reliable engine.

video games

it's iconic

Probably the best looking car that will ever be made.

It was driven by that guy who only wanted to focus on the D. Also shit car because it was beaten by a magical Corolla which makes every car it races spin out.

The peak performance of the dorito engine

>Also shit because it was beaten by a magical Corolla

How's that make it shit though? It's a mortal car competing against a supernatural Toyota.

it's not the biggest meme car

That's a lotta memes.

>slow
>probably has fake hood scoops
>boring looking

came here to post this. the mr2 has never been anything beyond completely mediocre.

The biggest meme is the Escort Cosworth. Fantastic car, don't get me wrong, but the meme tax slapped on them is obscene

>Have to rev the piss out of it to get any power

>absolutely no torque to speak of

>Under powered at 250 ps and cant keep up with todays performance cars

>Many are modded degrading performance and resale value, hurting the market.

>gaudy ]factory rice looks

But the thing is, It handles like a fucking dream, and pretty much the best thing you can get short of a mid engined Car. And THAT is why people love them.

t. former 6 month FD owner

They handle better than mr2s

Yes maybe the SW20, the worst handling of the three and more of a grand tourer.

A Fd3s would never outhandle an aw11 or mr-s. Ive seen enough Auto x to know that.

ok maybe it's not as agile for something like autocross, but all three mr2s have a cheap strut suspension that doesn't do all that well at the limits, especially on the track.

Sound like a pile of memes to me

FDs are getting more and more expensive, and the maintenance will cost a lot unless you do all of it yourself.

Timeless design + Dorito that could bankrupt you

>factory rice looks

USDM FDs are getting more expensive, we got them for 3 years and not everyone likes rhd.

Meanwhile every year we get flooded with the next batch of legal to import jdm FDs, it's cheaper to have one imported than to buy domestically.

stand aside boyes, the memes have arribed

It's USM, not USDM.

Why are nu-Mazdas so ugly?

not ever but one of the best looking cars made in the era.

>Turbo rotary
I hate turbos. Naturally aspirated all the way. The RX8 is so much better.

R34 GTR.
people literally go on about how its the best of the skyline GTR's when its objectively the worst out of the rb26 engined ones.
its fat, its ugly, it has a nurburg ring edition so its automatically a piece of shit.
but everyone gets their dicks hard over it because "muh F&F". fucking sick of seeing people actually think the 34 is better than the 33 in any way, shape or form.

Good old R31 never fails to please.

>it has a nurburg ring edition so its automatically a piece of shit.
what kind of meme is this

James May kind of meme. So the best kind.

*teleports behind you*

mazda 6 is the prettiest saloon in its price point, by far.

the 32 and 34 will get hit by the meme tax while the 33 stays accessible. let them think whatever they want.

Doubt they will all get the meme in the US im glad i got mine recently R32 GTS-T even got to meet the previous owner from japan :)

It's like a fucked up pt cruiser

fiero is the biggest meme car

because its fastest in touge

Can't understand how this is ugly, it looks like an evolved Miata
Although I have to admit it looks much better with a license plate on the grille

Fuck off pommy cahnt

I’m torn on this.

I think it you averaged-out the proportions of the best looking sports car you’d end up with basically an fd, but it’s also sorta bland because of this. It’s the generic “sports car” shape as imagined by someone who knows nothing about cars.

It’s a fantastic base for body customization because of this though.

>R33 free from meme tax
>inb4 Gran Turismo fags/400R replicafags

>400r replicafags
please dont tell me this is a thing

Fd is for real men just as the Miata is. Mazda has never been about making cars that are high power, they just give the cars the minimum power and max out the handling characteristics of the car.

Every morning for five years and going I've been delivering pizzas in the morning using my trusty Fiat Tipo.
I've in my cupholder a wine glass: if the wine spills I'm hurting the pizza.
How your meme tofu car even compare?

Every morning for a month and going i've been delivering my ass to college in the morning using my trusty miata.
I have a clutch in my car: if the clutch smells, i'm hurting my budget.
How your italian shitbox even compare?


also, how to properly explain policemen wine glass in your car cup holder?

>Italy
>explaining wine glass in cupholder to poliziaman
how you explain DON'T having a wine glass in the cupholder?

because rotards are trying to cope with the fact that their engine is absolute shit in every conceivable way

Just look at how elegant it is. Look at those curves.

I love FDs. No meme about it.

Agree on only this point.

there you go

Uh, plenty of meme about it.

That era was ugly as fuck, yeah. But newer kodo cars look pretty great I think.

Except for that ugly girly red.

i use cummins here mate.

>tfw you want the chassis of RX-7 for great handling characteristics, good ride quality and supposedly great brakes but do NOT want the special snowflake engine it comes with

Oh user, if you could read, you would have noticed that everyone who isn't a rotard already did that from the start

this shitbox

Why not buy a Corvette?

Yeah the R32 gets blown way out of proportion.

I always see these things dominate drags

Which is a shame, because they can do so much more. I hate 1320 cancer culture.

Engine with deadweight built around it.

>user discovers what a car is

Well the 2JZ engine is just so fucking good

The car is still a meme tho.

I own a 1JZ Soarer it's a much better looking car

a car without cup holders automatically makes it better than any other car.

>sequential twins makes it drive like a V8, don't need to rev it
>perfect weight balance
>perfect uncompromised seating position
>timeless design appreciated by non car people alike
>blatant disregard for environment or poor people with inefficient engine
>mazda so confident with reliability they offered a lifetime warranty for its engines

Whats not to like?

only supra/skyrine gtr nuthuggers, or people who can't afford them shit talk them. There is literally nothing ever made that remotely provides the same package the fd rx7 has. The theatre and sound of the twin turbos, the looks and the handling make it always special to drive.

Hence why I have an fd next to my BNR34.

You're a meme. Soarer is about to be the next meme, too.

Ones im gonna own,
Mark 3 supra
Mark 4 Supra
2005 sti.

Someone screenshot this meme.

>2005 STi

Disgusting.

>GT-R nuthuggers
>that's why I own a GT-R

Reddit and Veeky Forums hate the Supra, it's the trendy thing to do right now. The NSX, FD, and R32 are the memes of the moment.

Which meme? Mazda AUS provided lifetime warranty for its engines so long as it was serviced at Mazda. A bloke on the FB group got his replaced in late 2016, and a loan car comped for him for two weeks for the inconvenience of the engine rebuild.

>mind blown most people who nuthug cars are people who don't actually own them and come into bat for them on chinese sewing websites.

The GTR is a nice car in its own right. Next car on the list is an NA1. I've driven a few, and can say a red one might be a car that looks better than the FD. Shame the engine is so bland. The forward visibility and chassis make up for it. Its a nightmare trying to find one for sale compared to anything else JDM of that era.

I don't like supras - although they are great solid cars and handle good. They just feel large and don't imbue the same feeling of fun on a twisty road like the alternatives. The only saving grace of the supra is adding a giant turbo and flooring it in a straight line like an idiot? Also all the cheap non turbo auto ones on the road take away from the cool factor of the turbo getrag ones.

>The only saving grace of the supra is adding a giant turbo and flooring it in a straight line like an idiot?
Is this what you really believe? It's fine if you have a bias against it, most people do, but I'm not just going to sit here and read this Car Throttle tripe.

Just got done watching the video, well no shit the fd is going to be faster it's got over 100hp on the Honda go and pause the video when they show the specs it's more impressive the s2000 posted similar times while down on power

>inability to read the two preceding sentences before where I said they are solid cars and handle good

They aren't just great for flooring in a straight line. Its just a shame I don't own a racetrack where I can throw the entirety of the car around at speed, and not have it feel uncomfortably wide. Nissan skylines, the non gtr ones are commonly called big cars - or boats. The supra feels much wider on a windy road (or touge, for the weebs). Why would I bother taking up a car spot in the garage for a supra, which again, whose only saving grace for me would be to slap a big turbo on it and floor it in a straight line? I could rebuild my 34's engine and make enough power to do what the supra can do. I'm completely uninterested in some kind of engine rebuilt 1200hp supra. Cheers for the car throttle write off meme. Did I mention i've owned both an s1 and s2 supra in the past? Woops.

I like this theory

>another overrated meme box meets its end

Niceu.

>subpar performance
For how much it cost when new, it performed pretty damn well.

No man the biggest meme car is the miata

No, it ooks fucking awful just like any supra that isn't a mk I. FD is overrated, the looks even moreso.

Can we also address the fact that the NSX and R32 are ugly and bland respectively as well?

Pretty sure it is. Nismo sells a bunch of pieces from the 400R still.

I personally wouldn't want it though, maybe the 400R hood and some other trim pieces but I don't think anything else is all that interesting.
