The car is impressive, the snorkel on the other hand isn't doing it for me.

The car is mid engine, I could live with the snorkel. Hell you have Honda Civics and Accord owners putting ricer snorkels on their car for looks.

Its functional and makes the car look like a JGTC car. Thats why its there. I am suprised that people dont like it. I think it makes the car look like the real deal Japanese Grand touring car

Alright, that snorkel is functional but aesthetically horrible.
Couldn't they incorporate some clean roof air duct instead?

What's annoying is the damn Japanese tuner name: jo blood, junction grocery produce.... now spoon
