    Default Re-Amemiya Customer Rx8

    This car was built for a famous anime artist, Ito Oogure, creator of Tenjho Tenge and Air Gear. Oogure-san took care of the design of the car while Amemiya-san did the rest. Think of it as an anime car turned into reality, but it isn’t until you open the doors that you get the full impact of the conversion. RE Amemiya called on the services of Obayashi Factory, Japan’s best-known custom interior and audio/video shop
    I like the front end..the rear i would change..

    Very different I must say. Although I do like the front end, but the interior is too much for me.

    I think if the rear was bigger it'd look better. in the close up pic it looks good but when you see how small the taillights are with the rest of the car it looks like ass. the interior sucks too but they were going for an Anime theme, I bet the owner is wierd as hell too, he probably has spiked hair and wears snake skin pants to this interior totally fits him.

    I love that interior. Crocodile inserts and snake skin. Wow. Love it. Spikes are so so, but the rest of it I love.

    Front end is great, RE-Amemiya shit on the car (performance wise) is great, everyhting else is a no no.

    You would think after all this work they would've matched the engine bay to the rest of the car...the yellow bay ruins it on a whole new level for me

    I think it looks great. The rear part of the body kit is verrrrrry close to being good, but it's just a little off. It almost looks like a touring car kit in the rear, but not quite. LOL at the chrome skull selector knob!

    I like the front-end..

    And this pic:



    Makes it look awesome...

    But this pic:



    Just makes me realize how much that rear-end conversion through off the body lines...

    It looks cool, no doubt, and if it was a STICK, I'd drive it...

    But as far as crazy modified conversion cars go....I don't like it.

    I think it looks absolutely horrible. Looks like they made an RX-8 look as girlie as possible, then just said screw the interior and made it look like some 80's Japanese metal type thing going on.
