Makes me want to stick a CRV drivetrain in an EK, weld the diffs, turbo it and have some fun...But I've been out of the turbo game way too long. Unfortunately the 1.4L Chevy sonic doesn't count. I need a proper turbo car damn it!!!

no question the car kicks ass, but the video seemed a bit boring compared to the sanfran or the hollywood studio ones.  i would even question if it is him actually doing the driving since you don't see his face.

I'd love to have that car without the flares and the wheels tucked under. Induction under the hood.

I'm just glad there's no Yakima bike rack, the camber is set correctly, and there's no rusted body panels.

I dunno...You could be right but, he's always done his own stunts, why would this  be any different?

oh, i know it was him, but there is potential for the question.  why?  regardless, the guy has an immense amount of driving skill and i wish it was displayed a bit better with this new car.  it just didn't seem as exciting as previous gymkhanas.

Agreed. Too much driving in a straight line really fast. Not enough things to keep me on the edge of my seat the whole time like in some previous videos. The bouncing car part was pretty cool. They should of done more with that. I was impressed when he drifted around two 200K+ lambos not a POS $13,000 police car.

I would prefer to smell the burning tires instead of the piss smell of LA lol (I guess no rain comes at a price...)

I want to build a mustang suddenly.

Holy crap, that's 18k$. http://www.kijiji.ca/v-voiture-collection/drummondville/ford-mustang-1965/1021134075?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true (http://www.kijiji.ca/v-voiture-collection/drummondville/ford-mustang-1965/1021134075?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true)

The Integra is not a bad car either... right?
