That's called ladderized progression haha

Well put

well in this case Subaru WRX is already my favorite car haha

I know that feeling from racing games haha

this is literally my reaction after ditching some muscle car for the impreza in nfs carbon. Stacked deck messed me up but the moment I took the Impreza I was suddenly unbeatable again

just use a french EBR 105 it can out-drift most tanks and that means it can out-drift many cars... I mean with enough speed and firepower you can do many things

@@britishneko3906 no no, you have a point

@@britishneko3906 for real i recently bought one and no one ever has the balls to race with me!! I pull up next to this twin turbo huracan with no rear bumper. Frightened by that thing i lined up and the lights go green. I give it the beans but i had to chance with that lambo seconds later i pressed a button what looked like a nos button and the lambo was no more i really did blow his doors off. 11/10 would recommend.

i think he already realized that againts the evo III

@@JustSujC i was replying to the comment that said a french EBR 105 is the best option

Bunta would’ve killed him if anything happened to the impreza

There's almost 1 between Keisuke (Drunk) and Fujiwara (also drunk)

@@bayrachman7675 source?

@@bayrachman7675 what? when? where?

@Tooru at the end of the manga during the drinking party by Lake Akina Takumi goes and brings the Impreza. Keisuke gets drunk and wants to race Takumi who isn't drunk because he drove himself there.

Yeah, I would be like it if they make that

I always though it was a miss-opportunity big time for Initial D Final Stage, not to have the "actual" final race that is.. TAKUMI v KEISUKE rematch (The race that started it all). Like both Takumi and Keisuke are safe to say level above Ryosuke (as Ryosuke admitted himself), that would be one heck of an amazing race and fitting sent off for the two Project D aces before they parted ways. The AE86 v AE86 is cool, but that's not the appropriate "final" race to end it all. And it's a damn shame.

Sadly Bunta's voice actor for the main series, not the remake, passed away in 2020, 2021 or 2022, forgot which year that was

​@@ramal5708 probably 2024... but seriously, rip...

I know this is late but MF Ghost is coming the trailer is out.

Basically competing with himself. Takumi pictures that the AE86 is chasing him if he's using the impreza. And pictures himself chasing the impreza if he's using the 86

@Bob H Miki vs Takumi during the winter

@@1mawesomel1kethat wasnt a race realy

@@mzaversnik2655 close enough Takumi chased Miki down the mountain

I feel like there was potential after he damaged the 86 in the God Arm race. Would have been cool to bust it out while they were doing repairs.

It would be cool if they would have done segments that were flashbacks for bunta

That's like me borrowing my mum's desktop that ran games at 60 FPS while my laptop ran the same game at 17 FPS.

I feel like it’s missing in this clip.

Over kill

Takumi with Impreza would beat Keisuke easily. Impreza is a really good car with good handling & 4wd capabilities.

Same handling, better power, better acceleration, same skill drivers? Yeah Takumi is winning that one.

@@jordycruz6661read MF Ghost

imagine if the series ended with takumi blowing out the 86 in a rematch against keisuke instead of shinji, would've been so much cooler.

in the manga, takumi and project d were dunk af in lake akina, and stated that if Takumi used the Impreza in a 'rematch', Keisuke won't be able to keep up, and I think if they did race, Takumi'll still win.

@@jirouhanz2 a race between them would make zero sense. One races uphill and one downhill, which way would the race be?

@@es0x both, but probably downhill

@@jirouhanz2 Takumi was cocky when he said driving in that Impreza, since he claimed it was not his. They were both drunk. Lol.

The creator of the show was even a subie owner, real shame it didn’t get the action it deserved

probably in the garage for a blown headgasket like every subaru

AE86 is the high school education..gotta learn all the basics before moving on to the college level education (impreza)

Depends on the driver not the car. Especially if you got a nice upgraded AE86 and know EXACTLY how to destroy anyone in it like takumi

@@Threekayz or you can have the impreza and not even make it a contest, but then, we won’t have an underdog beating goliaths car wise.

@@Threekayz the car as the driver does matter for example: imagine a race of only single-seaters and a fiat punto comes and beats them because the driver is good it can also be the case that you have an r34 to say a fast car and you don't know how to drive it car in that case even a fiat punto would win

Did the same for me, i got an evo4 instead though

Try sleeping around without a condom,, heard its a really quick method to getting an STI

For me a black r32 with lfa engine swap would be sweet

@@Spooks8 It's called "Impreza" - It's on the 4th Stage Sound Files OST

@@WannabeWRX thank you

Well to surprise you, the impreza was actually a hint about takumi going into Rally racing. He was signed with toyota. He had the reputation of being one of the fastest asphalt racers but unfortunately, his career ended due to a drive train failure and he fell into a ravine. He retired and he mentored the current protagonist of MF Ghost. The initial D sequel

i was imaging a racer that just rolls from mountain to mountain every so often. kinda like bunta, just drives for the hell of it

@@brandonden795 like the arcades storyline where we basically shut down Project D

no one can beat me i am the boss :P

There's nothing bunta doesn't know about

Lmao that sounds about right

can confirm stock gc8 sti in real life still feels slow lol

@@tristanmeadows bruh really? 💀

@@tristanmeadows _my life is a lie_

@@confusedredditor1660 I can confirm your comment, I own a 2001 WRX STI, not a GC8 but a bugeye (with the same engine) and it feels pretty fast for a 20 year old cluncker, especially on roads like the ones in Initial D Its feels a lot more planted on the road than any other car I've driven before, you can go still go full throttle even in tighter getting corners without losing any traction. The suspension makes you feel pretty confident at any speed and the steering is quick, making it feel really dynamic I honestly think it can be a pretty damn fast car with the right driver, given the circumstances of the car. I also heard that even a geniune R32 is slower than a GC8

@@gizmo3209 wow, you're a lucky guy to one one of these beauties ❤️

I don’t think so, takumi has always gotten as close to the guardrail as possible. It was a challenge by bunta, but it’s because the car was so easy to drive it made him realize how inferior his 86 was, which is why later he spun out in the 86 trying to match the Impreza’s speed.

its outdated right now, it wasnt in initial D time line ;D

スバルAWDはいいよな😄

実用的な4WD

Same

Yea, in a Uphill battle Against Another Rivals to Nerf the Monster Cappacity of Takumi

@@davidtuner3340 Downill the STI is faster too. Stock it has far better brakes and the chassis is stiffer. But not everything is about speed nowadays.

Well there was a cool moment in the manga where Takumi and Mika were returning from their beach trip and on the highway a car spins out and is about to crash into the Imp but Takumi manages to dodge it while Mika was in complete shock. Too bad it was never animated despite the fact that they did show a glimpse of them returning from the trip.

I’ve been reading the manga for the 5th stage sections, and the anime definitely cuts some parts out that I wish stayed in. For instance in the race against the NB Miata, Satoshi (the driver) actually performs a gutter run. Would of been cool to see that animated just to highlight the level of skill of the opponent.

But the results will be quite obvious. Bunta will always win no matter what

@@WakanaGojoAE86 Hard to say. We can agree out of the two, Bunta is the more skillful driver. But i think putting Takumi in the GC8 is a good handicap as the GC8 is far more superior than the AE86 in performance. Even if Bunta does win, it's gonna be a tough race. Not a walk in the park like when he showed up in the GC8 for the first time and smoked Takumi in the AE86.

That ended his career.😢

And yes, He did. After the end of Initial D, Takumi retired from street racer and become a rally driver for around 30 year before he end his career. he’s mentoring another racer in the sequel manga "MF Ghost".

@@CodeNameTC I get that, but it doesn't seem right for him to drive the Impreza since Takumi loved the 86. Didn't he wanted to beat the Impreza?

@@aznpikachu215 the lesson is that he can beat racers even at their 4wd, however as long as he is the one setting the record instead with the impreza, it would be very difficult or impossible to beat his own record using the ae86 because of the performance difference of the two cars

@@NeptuneA750 But doesn't Takumi love the 86? He loves it so much that he can't admit it.

@@aznpikachu215 that's because it's his first car, but if he keeps insisting on racing better cars with formidable drivers, it would just spoil his love for the car for not being fast enough

It wouldn't have the same effect though as Mountain racing, Professional racing would be something completely different. But I wouldn't mind it as well.
