I'm asking you, why you chose the car that you have. It can be your first car, the one on the card you just bought, your third one, whatever. Were you looking for acceleration, top speed, grip, drift, versatility, looks, jumping on the bandwagon with everyone else (*cough* DC2 *cough*) or just because your favourite Initial D character drives it? Whatever reason, post it here! I chose the Mazda RX-7 Type R because I was looking for a car that is well balanced; something that has a good chance in battling on any course. And of course, something that didn't look like an oversized brick with wheels. Well, since I didn't know much on Initial D (or cars in general), I asked the players at the Funtime Arcade I go to, and they advised me (most of them) to get the RX-7. So far, this car has performed beyond my expectations (I still suck on battles without boost though), and I even chose it for version 3. So yeah, I was looking for a half-decent looking car that was well-balanced. |

Reigning and Defending Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,723 Member No.: 625 Joined: Aug 12th 2003 Location: Seattle, WA | I got the 86 as my first car because I liked the way it looked, plus I hoped that it was as good in the game, as it was when Takumi drove it. I bought the sorry ass R-34 and mostly all the other cars I have because I liked the look after the option customization was finished. Mostly all of my cars I got for looks, and I wanted to push the cars to see what times I could get with them. But my 86, is my pride and joy! |

Shmuck Group: Members Posts: 8 Member No.: 1,730 Joined: Apr 29th 2004 Location: Update Profile | I chose to drive an FD in ver.2 because I was getting fed up with my GT-4, and I wanted something that actually stood a chance in battles. Didn't get a DC2 because I didn't (and still don't) want the best car in the game. That, and the FD is sexy. |

IDW Full Member Group: Members Posts: 49 Member No.: 1,235 Joined: Feb 4th 2004 Location: Update Profile | Ver.1 DC2 Ver.2 DC2 Ver.3 DC2 I just choose the car because I have a Integra in real life and just wanted to have a Type R. But I guess the GS-R powerplant will have to suit my needs till I get a Type R engine swap. |

Even though I only use it for fun in LOTS and for a 'bait'. |
