"Korejanai" = "This ain't it" LOL.

What name to give it? Easy, the AE86 in Japan was known as the "Sprinter Toreno" or "Sprinter Levin", so why not keep the basic name?

Scion Sprinter.

Not even close to state of the art, or even special at this point:

Overweight soldiers and near-inactivity?

I wish I could get my hands on you right now. Inactivity eh? I personally have lost 3 people I know defusing roadside bombs, and seen countless people hurt in combat and industrial accidents. Where did all this occur? In the AOR.

You need to shut the hell up.

Megano,

I think you outta stick with what you know too. Blood frenzies, raping and pillaging, enslavement and stealing of subsistence food crops are bad ass when they are visited on you don't know, right?

I'm sure if the Nords did the same to you, you'd be crying like a little girl.

This is a total misrepresentation of the art.

Iaido does stress the things you mention above, but what you left out was one very important point:

These moves are executed against an IMAGINARY opponent!

Under no circumstances would you use this against another sword-wielding opponent in a sparring match (that's called "combat").

Somewhere after the Meji Restoration swordsmanship was split into two parts: The sparring part was given to the art that uses bamboo "swords" and armor, called Kendo, the imaginary drawing and striking part was given to Iaido. This was the only way for the art to survive in the face of both a peaceful modern age and a modern army with bayonets and firearms.

This treatment of a martial art (bad-ass as you say) is a typical case of unnecessary fanboyism. Articles like this do a monumental disservice to people who are doing their best to keep a life steeped in "the way of the sword" alive in a modern age.

Do us a favor and stick to travel.

What are you smoking Nagamshot?

Mitsubishi motors has never been owned by anyone other than the Mitsubishi Keiretsu. They have sold "part" ownerships to other companies and had alliances with others but no one has owned them outright.

I'm no fan of Mitsu-motors but let's be real here.

So, my advice to you is this.

1. Get your facts straight before you open your racist, Euro-centric piehole.

2. Work on your spelling and grammar. I realize that English isn't your first language but don't make an embarrassment of yourself.

Amazing that a Confederate flag arouses controversy (rightfully so) on the pole above the Alabama Capitol building but not on the roof this more well known icon.

Glen, take it in and they will fix it FOR FREE! I have all my recall work (I had the infamous Honda transmission recall), done when I take it in for scheduled maintenece.

Is it just me or does the back look like you just ripped the hatchback off an AE86?
