Who would have thought that a guy aged 30+ young would replace his stolen car, which was a Honda Civic Type R with a wagon! A vehicle that is usually associated with soccer mom or ‘pasar malam’ traders who needs the extra cargo space to ferry their wares.

Some says that the GT-R signifies Nissan's innovation, while the 350Z signifies their heritage, as such; the Silvia should be the model that signifies their youth. But for me, the Silvia is a car that continues the legacy of the classic FR (front engine rear wheel drive) sport car DNA. It isn’t pack with fancy electronic stuff like ABS or traction control, but to many, this is considered a blessing as it allows the driver to control the car based on their skill alone, making it a more ‘fun’ car to drive. Even though the Silvia have now been overshadowed by other Nissan siblings that are cramped with new technologies; namely the Z platform and the GT-R, but in the world of drifting, this car is the weapon of choice. Sure the Z and GT-R are good cars, but the exhilarating feeling that one gets when drifting in a Silvia is indescribable.

What has four doors, a huge trunk, seats 5 and accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in under 5 seconds? The Evo of course! When it was introduced to the market back in the early 1990’s, no other car in its class, except the Subaru Impreza, came close to challenge its supremacy both in the muddy tracks of World Rally Championship or on the streets. Introduced as a specially made rally homologated series, the Evo gradually grew up, and starting with the Evo VII, it became a full blown production car....

As a norm, our magazine do not entertain request on what is to be attached to the title of a featured car, but in this case, we made an exception. The owner wanted us to refer to his car as “D’Evil Machine”, and we gladly obliged. Why? Just look at this car! It is simply awesome with a capital A! There is nothing more sinister than a wide-bodied two door coupe with a menacing front end that is not ashamed to display a front mount intercooler. A BMW with an intercooler - now this is something worth reading about, right?
