Now what would have happened to this poor Soarer Z10? Could it be that these three guys actually did the Street Fighter II Car Bonus in real life? Or could it be that they wrecked their Soarer and just pretended...

We'll never know, but I'm sure it would be a great addition to their family album. :)

Two months ago I posted some older Down on the Street by me from a period where I didn't even have a proper digicam yet. So, here are some more beautiful cars taken on a crappy phonecam!

Let's start with this nice S12:

Down on the Street: Nissan 200SX S12
The Silvia S12 was called the 200SX in the US and even though this car has the "normal" CA18ET under its hood it is still badged as the 200SX. ;)
Back then the owner of this car lived in the center of Amsterdam and took the habit of parking it close to my house (waiting time for a parking license in Amsterdam is about 3 to 4 years!) so I saw it many many times. According to the RDW this car no longer exists in the Netherlands...

How about a non-widebody Starion then?
Starion and Soarer after the jump!

After Thursdays overkill in Soarers I started searching on some videos. I found this short 1987 comparison video of the old (1986) and new (1987) Soarer:

As you can see: the new MZ21 Soarer with Air Suspension did improve a lot over the older (yet already amazing) Soarer with TEMS. The Air Suspension clearly compensates breaking out the new Soarer and keeps it in a straight line... Also the 0.2 liter increased 5M to 7M really makes a difference: about two seconds on the 0-400m run. But that is rather normal for a 70hp increase. Still I personally prefer the MZ11 styling above the MZ21...

It was a long time ago I posted a count the cars picture, so how about counting some Soarers?

How many Soarers did you count?
I stopped counting after 25. How many did you count? :P

I found this stack of old rusty J-tin on another rustoseum blog. It features a bunch of Toyota X60s, a Soarer Z10 and a Nissan Leopard F30:

Also visible next to the Soarer is the Laurel C34, Gloria Y31 and a blue 2 door Corolla Levin AE86 coupe.

Zoom in on the Soarer. It appears to have been either a racing car or a Kaidou Racer. I presume the latter. ;)
