Today's video brings me genuine joy because it brings to a conclusion something that started a long time ago. In fact, it was seven years ago that I first saw, fleetingly, this striking, third generation Silvia RS coupé in traffic. Those few short moments were enough to set off flashbacks and thoughts of when I'd see it again, until the present day. Imagine my surprise when I finally saw it parked, and accessible, at a convenience store.
The Silvia is in fair condition, though the passenger side has regularly been exposed to the elements over the last 20 years leaving the lower sections with aggressive rust. It's also attracted a lot of decoration over the years, some of which is explained in the video.
Mechanically, it seems in good working order. The owner takes a generous amount of time warming up the FJ20 DOHC 4 cylinder engine before setting out. And, while I'm not sure how many kays it has done, the yellow coupé only sees use on weekend outings. Well, except for that time that he drove it from Fukuoka to Chiba, on the regular roads (i.e. NOT the express ways) to see his beloved soccer team, Giravanz Kitakyushu, play in the J3 grand final.
