If you didn’t click over to Chris Wick’s blog when we told you to yesterday, then you missed out on this trailer from Format67 involving an NSX, the town of Frankfurt, and some great editing. Again, it leans heavily on the dramatic buildup featuring slow motion and lens flare lighting school [...]

In our last Showdown, the FJ80 crawled all over the mega-overpriced Wagoneer, but I’ll readily admit it wasn’t much of a fair matchup. Oh well.
