Just a couple more shots from Sevenstock this year and a shot of my rear diffuser... The sig shot on my dash is signed by Takaharu "Koby" Kobayakawa, project manager for Gen 3 development. The 4 Japanese symbols above his name were posted on a wall in Japan during Gen 3 development to keep the Team focused on their objectives for development. They stand for "Direction - the car would be a pure sports car, Spirited - it would posess the vitality of an untamed stallion, Alluring - the design would be tempting, enticing and seductive, and Excitement - it would arouse the emotion of motion." The cool thing is that he was telling me this story while signing my dash. I think they achieved their goal. Anyway... thought it was a cool differentiator. Very few FDs signed by Koby.
