'Multiple Specification' CRX EF8

Let's start straight away with this one: no I don't normally dig on pinstrips either, and not only is the rest of this rex awesome from the overfenders, to the canards and splitter on the J's Racing front bumper, to the rear diffuser, to the gutted/eight-point caged interior, but he almost pulls those black stripes off. Almost (and maybe it's because with the ARC wing and those stripes it looks an awful lot like the SS Works CRX, seen by many here).

Check:
See, it does look a lot cleaner without the strips, but that's not the most important aspect of this EF8. The pictures show that this car is used as bit of a touge/circuit whore, switching between the two depending on whichever jollies/urges the owner needs to satisfy, and that's the way it should be. As the owner puts it in his blog, "multiple specification, from the circuit to commuting, it's handled."

Bonus - Although I couldn't find any street footage of this CRX, here are a couple videos of some shakedown runs at Autopolis last season. Enjoy:

Why do people get so anal about pinstripes ?! If you guys knew any better of the SS Works, then it would occur that it's part of their livery, so basically the guy was only mimicking their style ...

Ken -- What's with the harsh comment? -- "If you guys knew any better of the SS Works, then it would occur that it's part of their livery"

If I knew better, pshh. Did you take the time to read the post? Here's an important excerpt you may have missed:

"maybe it's because with the ARC wing and those stripes it looks an awful lot like the SS Works CRX"

See, clearly I've seen what the SS Works CRX looks like. So why question it, or mention that it's part of the livery when I already have, and have even included a link to a video of it donning said livery.

At least read the whole post, then attack. Or don't, because I'm not not reading your blog and then commenting about your lack of a lack of knowledge. Haha; that's some clever wordplay.

Thanks for reading/following though, hopefully you've enjoyed most of your time here.

My bad, no harsh feelings - just pointing things out or at least trying ...
