The top one looks like a rolling bag of rice, whats wrong with the bottom one? Looks like the cut the roofline down, kinda gives it a sleeker look but it's not bad.

I honestly like the bottom one better.

I like the bottom one, I'm with ca18guy on the sleeker look.
I really don't like the hood on the top one.

Yes the World 180 is a little showy (OK too showy)- but I don't think its fair to call it a &quot;rolling bag of rice&quot;.. The car makes 350hp and is tuned for drifting..... Its not just for looks, its a real drift car (dunno how much everyone knows about it).

I think the second one needs a small, repeat &quot;small&quot; spoiler to cut the line but I really like the low sweeping look.

I thought that to, but I think even a tiny spoiler would block alot of the view.

i like the first 180 better actually cuz if i had it the stickers would be off n i'd have a different spoiler. i guess the 2nd one kinda looks like a 300zx to me.

what u must understand is that there can be a debate on any picture of any car.... some people may hate it and someone may LOVE it u just have to kno that we can't go around debating every single picture of every single car lol

the bottom one looks photoshopped. &nbsp;how can you chop the top while keeping the stock glass?!?

I've seen it in different option mags, it's the real deal. &nbsp;Probablly just shaved the glass or something. &nbsp;I love the black 180, dont know about the green paint job they recently gave it tho.

In what world is that bottom one ugly?
I think it's frickin' awesome, very clean and subtle!

i just think the bottom on is very very disproportionate. that makes it look ugly in my eyes, as it breaks up the natural body lines

and the top one is the koguchi 180sx, it is NOT a rolling bag of rice, you should get the videos and maybe you'll think otherwise. and do you know anywhere that i can see it with the green paint? i personally love the black

Maybe I'm crazy....but doesn't the bottom one look like the 300Z from that angle........only a suggestion

The bottom one looked cool before I scrolled down to see the whole thing. It's TOTALLY disproportunate, the body on the thing is HUGE compared to the glass!

No thanks. If I wanted something that looked like that I'd buy a lotus or a TVR and keep a decent line on the body too.

I have a picture of it in green, &nbsp;it will be in your e-mail.:)

The bottom car was created by Ikeya Formula, they make a slick little sequential shifter for the S13. I was unable to find any information on the car, does anyone know anything about it?

glad to see transient agrees

white240 thanks for the pic. i prefer the original black, i think it offsets the bronze of the volk wheels so much better than the green, however the green was really really well done

I love the Koguchi 180SX. Search for a movie called koguchi.mpg and you will see it do some awesome drifting!!!

Is the wheels made by Volk? Then what's the name of that wheel-model??

How about another picture! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

lol... i'll bring it up again.... people equate all the stickers with rice... and that car is the epitomy of drifter style.
probably the niftiest thing about the Koguchi s13 is that the engine has been moved back a lot for even better weight distribution. (in some recent pics you can see just how far the dash has been moved to compensate.)

YES! at first I thought it was a 300zx with 180sx lights! I think both look very nice.

The wheels might be Nismo LM GT4, maybe.

the one on the bottom is the IKEYA FORMULA car. it says it on the license plate. &nbsp;It was in an option video, it has a 2&quot; chopped top. &nbsp;It will drift circles around all you guys. it has a trick ass rear suspension, it was the feature of an option video, i will try to find pics of it and show you guys. it deserves alot of respect.

They both have their good and their bad... just a different flavor.

the koguchi is cool if you are a drifter fan...

the later is cool cause of its chopped top...

BUT - They are both 18()'s which make em cool to me...

Just my opinion... =)

Personally I really like the S15 with the RPS13 front end... mmmmm those crazy guys at MASA @ it again....

the bottom reminds me of 300zx and also it reminds me of the new vetes i like that they chopped the top defintly alot of work to do that

All Nismo wheels are made by Ray's who I believe also makes Volk wheels.

Ok, I just checked and it is the other way, Volk makes Ray's.
