Wow glad you guys like it. Didn't expect that from the minimalistic approach I took towards the car.

I agree with you AliGhanizad, these cars do look good but the concept itself is dated, or rather classic. I like everything about the AP1 =] and not because I own an AP2. The AP2 definetly looks very modern, but it just doesn't strike me. Maybe one day in the far future I might change my mind.

For the price I payed I could've picked either one but that front bumper reminds me of a Super7, tail lights do look extremely dated but they remind me that I drive a Honda =] and that's why I like them.

No turbo, no AWD, no VSA or any other driver aid, no comfort creatures besides for AC and a shitty radio =D and especially no power below 5k!

The AP1 appeals to me in the lack of all these things. I felt odd driving an AP2, despite only minor changes it felt too civilized for the cars concept it seemed, took away some of that raw aura, and I despise those orange circles in the tail lights, but in clear they do look sexy.

At the end of the day if I took an AP2 and replaced all the parts on it that don't appeal to me i'd end up with an AP1 =/ Only thing I'm jealous if is the gearbox, which will change soon ; ]

oh & yes, **** CBTs!!!! If they didn't have all the answers online I'd fracture my skull with a monitor.

A & B fit just fine, plenty of room for C bag in the trunk too. but flight gear on top might be a little tight =P

You mean to tell me you can actually wear the gas mask on your leg and shut the door? That thing is a pain just trying to walk around with. Good to see another Airman rocking a berlina black. I'm from Marietta and I don't think I've seen you around. Where you stationed?

Gotta swing the door and jump towards the passenger seat but it does close

Stationed at Langley. Are you at Dobbins? My parents stay in woodstock, I go home every couple months so I'm going to hunt you down next time I'm there
