      I have found and saved the rarest Mazda FC RX7 ever made! Now this car is rare. Really rare! Let me break this down really quick...
      Ever heard of the rare 100 GTUs rx7s? Only 40 have ever been claimed and only 7 are confirmed at the time of this posting! Here are the rarest rx7 FC3S models:
      1500 10AE Turbo models
      1400 infini
      1000 winning limited
      150 final edition convertible
      100 GTUs...
      out of that 100:
      83 red on black
      10 black on black
      7 white on blue
      There was only 100 GTUs models created between 1989 and 1991.
      If you own one of these rare models sign your car up to the registry list here on any of the rotary forums!

    Tokyo drift is the movie I truly grew up with. I saw it in theatres even though my parents didnt want me to, I watched it at my friend's when it came out on dvd, and I just kept on watching it all through my teens and now young adult. Han's RX7 is such a badass car since it looks like a track LMP and it had my heart since I was 5. If I had 50K in my bank and I already had a Superlite SLR (w/ LSx454 ofc), Viper ACR, RX8 GT, Road legal stock car (vortec 8100 swapped), road legal Radical SR3.... then yeah I would buy one. I feel like the sleekness of the veilside kit has been pretty well reinterpreted with the Superlite kit car although the rear of the veilside is fucking unbeatable. Its easily my top 5 best looking car booties 😍😍

That car easily became my favorite car in the franchise based on that alone, car was just sexy as hell when it did that!

    This is by far my favorite car from these movies, as someone who loves RX-7s, it looked fantastic and sounded even greater, that's not to mention the impact it did on popular culture and how it "cemented" the RX-7's place as an iconic movie car. Some may argue they are "cars held on pedestals", but the charisma Rotary cars like it has it is something so unique, and I saw that in Tokyo Drift.
    Great to hear Sung also thinks highly of this car as well, I wonder if someday he's gonna "pull of a Han" and actually build a replica of his own!

    Was quite the time to be alive if you were into modified cars. Just thinking back to the amount of reputable tuning houses, quality aftermarket products and large scale car events. I remember VeilSide for their wild curvy body kits which in hindsight look quite ridiculous, but were so popular at the time. Unfortunately over the years I feel Japan has gone the same way, iconic places such as Sendai Hi-Land Raceway are now closed and SuperAutobacs in Shinonome is a shell of its former self. Love these videos for a bit of nostalgia.

    Honestly I watched a couple of his videos an no matter what I hear about them I can’t change my mind , it was awesome to live in that era , fast and furious , tokyo drift , need for speed games , for a couple fo years it felt like I was living in a different reality , it was fun , customised cars were awesome , decals were something else , so many different body kits , simply fun .

    Tokyo Drift still one of my favorite of all the F&F movies. Back when it was more about racing and not crazy mission impossible stunts.

      Tokyo drift is also my favorite fast and furious film I love that 70 Monte Carlo Sean Boswell wrecked that breaks my heart every time I see that Monte Carlo get wrecked also this will give me hate I actually think the veliside fd rx-7 looks better than the production version also the FB rx-7 is the best looking rx-7 in my opinion because 70's JDM cars are underrated and sexy

    You should consider doing a video on the Evo 9 from Tokyo Drift. I know it’s not everyone’s favorite car since it got converted from AWD to RWD but as a fan of your videos and the car, I’d definitely be interested in the story behind it.

    For me there are a handful of memorable cars after Tokyo Drift mainly the Mk1 Escort RS and the Grand National.

    The bodykit was always an interesting one with the Koenigsegg-esque fixed headlights, do VeilSide still make it? (Do they make any of the old, iconic bodykits anymore, for that matter?)

    • @craiglieberman
      @craiglieberman  4 года назад +21

      Yes, it’s still made. I showed a screenshot of their current website (VeilSide).

    • @henrik1743
      @henrik1743 2 года назад +2

      Fun fact about you mentioning the koenigsegg. I worked at the factory, according to the "OG's" working there, the early Koenigseggs (CCR especially) had BIG problems with those headlights, always leaking and having moisture problems.

    Its hard to imagine 00s stuff is vintage now. I feel old lol. To hear somebody say "back then" or " at the time" when referring to something from 04/05 is kind of funny.

    Seeing how many people treat Rotaries like normal engines, it probably DID have about 350hp until they flooded, cold revved and whatever other hellish things they could've done. If you abuse a rotary that way, they lose power and die FAST

    • @nitrous36
      @nitrous36 3 года назад

      I hate it when people cold rev any engine, rotary or not. Its like let it warm up a little, jesus fucking christ.
