    It just one of those things, much like some people call the BRZ - FRS a coupe, others label it as a sports car. I don't care what it is as long as I like it.

    The Toyota 86 is a sports car developed jointly by Japanese automobile manufacturers Toyota and Subaru. It has 2+2 seats, a 2-door coupé body style and a front-engine, rear-wheel drive layout.

    Did you miss the 1960's through the 1980's?

    Ha, win.

    Really, seems to be a lot of insecure little boys up in here...

    I'd let them keep thinking that too. I'd much rather people thought I was looking at nearly naked women than a tranny.

    It helps that I am the guy who fires you for that, while being the guy who "researches sites" if I get caught.

    We should be well beyond the point that people get weirded out by a little gender bending, given it's been a part of popular culture for decades now.

    Much better.


    The 'making of' video is just wrong, the voice does NOT match the pretty face.

    The responses to this thread are some of the funnier ones I've seen. Calling Larry insecure because of his equally funny comment? Lame.
