Hey eveyone, whats been up? I haven't been on in a while mostly because of computer problems. Well I bought a new car. It's a 1986 Toyota Corolla SR5 5spd. I'd like to when I'm done with:454SS pro tourer/street machine,BMW Z8,Hemi Hydro, and Revell Enzo; build an exact replica of my car. It's the 3dr. HB model, ill take some pics tomorrow to see what everyone thinks. Funny huh, how a guy that's addicted to running a straight line all the time, could have so much fun sliding a lightweight car around curves.

Cool. A friend of mine has a panda Trueno, too, and it runs (or turns, I should say) surprisingly well for its age.
No wonder why it gained a status, even before Initial D.
Should be fun to make a replica of it.

Cool! Another AE86 owner. I bought mine back in June, I have a red coupe. I bought my model kit from HLJ and painted it gold/ black, the Golden Panda. I just never posted any pics cause I didn't like the outcome. Good luck with your real car, I love mine.

Thats cool. BTW, which kit did you get, i'd buy the I D one, but then id end up building it ID style.

Nice to see everyone likes older Corollas! In fact, I have four "Hachi-roku" kits... two 3-Door Truenos, one 3-door Levin, and one 2-door levin.

I didn't get the ID one. It's the Fujimi Trueno coupe newer version. They might have some at HLJ.
