I think the SEs sit too high, stock. After you lower it (gotta take out the lights to get them low enough) they look great. The only ugly body I think they have is the yellow Enfini Rx-7. The Audis and Mustangs and the Savanah just need to be lowered.

To bad it's an SE, it's a great looking body.
Call me crazy if you want but I'm actually glad they're SE's. I think if RS sticks with improving the cars, they'll get it right. There were 2 major issues with the SE. No power and Steering. The power thing has been figured out with Mosfets, and the steering is close. If RS decides to actually start improving them, they'll probably be a great car. The original ZZ and the BCGs weren't all that great when first coming out. Now they're nearing the extent of their potential. I hear from someone who opens these up all the time that they are starting to see improved parts in the cars with increased performance. Hopefully RS is trying to get their act together.

I happen to love My SEs... The steering for my cars are fixed and they have MOSFETS... They are now faster than my regular Zips and handle wayyyy better. I tried to take video, if you wanna check it out go here

The cruisin is my fetted Stang with the purple motor and green gears. The race vidz are my fetted RX-7 with 21.5k motor and the green EVO is my regular ZZ with Purple 34k motor. It was close.... I also have a pic of my Stang after lowering.

It's not all that bad for SE drivers as some would believe.

I don't dislike SE's, I just wished the new body's could be bought separately. I really don’t need any more cars but I guess I’ll have to buy them if that is the only way to get the bodies.

Sorry, I misunderstood what you meant. I feel the same way you do. They put out like a hundred Audi TTs which are nice but a bit too many. I hope they do the same with these cars and instead of trying to put them in packs where everything else is not needed, sell them on their own. I mean, I'll pay 5 or 6 bucks for a body that I want but I refuse to pay 13 for a kit with a bunch of junk and all I like is one body. Even worse, I know some guys who bought the Initial D tuner kit just for the NX motor.

Just my 2 cents...
