Initial D was bassed off of real events and what was “in” that time during the late 80’s, early 90’s in japan. Think about it, all the big companies had their cars, toyota, mazda, nissan, honda, etc. Dont be a single minded jack ass and think that the world loves 240’s. Less then 5% of the world know about them. Regardless of that. They werent popular, also, please dont compare real life to F&F. thats the dumbest shit ive ever heard. Its alot more realistic to compete in touge battles with average joe cars, then go street racing in a fucking car thats modded the fuck out of. > > In conclusion … dont compare anything you see on t.v to what you see outside. i’d rant more, with more intellect, but im tired. 😛 No offense to you or anything… But Initial D is good and all, but when you put it that way… I’ll say it straight… You’re imagining life to be closer to Initial D than actors driving riced up Eclipses and shit… I’m not saying that 240’s are the shiat, really we all drive rusty POS econo-sports cars… There’s other cheaper and more reliable cars out there than ours… But if you’re taking the side of Initial D being all JDM tyte yo, its real vs. F&F… How many AE86’s do you know beating the crap out of 2nd gen RX-7s? I’m not saying that the racing is realistic in F&F, but take a look at the world? What do you see more? AE86 super-car status beating R32’s and shit, or ricers driving around recklessly in riced out mid-range cars? If you look at it this way, F&F has more realism to it today… Also, why does it say at the start of ID that this story is based on a fictional story, fictional characters, etc. Do not attempt to mimic whats being done, etc.? Drive safe, wear your seatbelts of whatnot… **But f-that… Lets not get this thread anymore off-topic…** --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/oh-hell-yes-the-fast-and-furious-vid/118003)._
