obscure cars thread?

>DSMs
>obscure

These were all over the drag scene. You might argue the Talon was obscure but that's because it was a tiny brand.

>>14217355
well, it's obscure in europe :3

>obscure

I used to see more riced out DSMs than Hondas
and as the anon above me said they were huge (and still kinda are) in the import drag scene

I can only assume most are rotting away in junkyards now so thats about the only way theyre "obscure"

instead of shitposting like a 12 year old faggot you might as well either ignore the thread or contribute something you find more interesting. But I understand that there are people who are only interested in Toyobaru vs V6 Mustang threads.

Too bad they didn't make that. They had all the huilding blocks - they could've even cheaped out and used Mazda's K series V6 instead of the V8, and put the ZEM's suoercharger on it to compensate for the the lost power. I bet they could've made at least 200hp with a cheaper package that way.
