For the tens of thousands of men and women who dedicate themselves in serving all divisions of the United States armed forces; we proudly salute you. With warm-filled hearts, we proudly address your efforts for busting your asses, working tirelessly as you sweep cities such as Tal Afar, Iraq, and all foreign countries for insurgents and pockets of resistance. We pay homage to the brave and fearless Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines personnel across the globe, protecting humanity and all mankind to create a better world for our future kids to cross the streets without the fear of terrorism; we can't thank you enough. As a small token of our appreciation, we would like to recognize soldiers based throughout the eastern and western hemisphere and their personal vehicles they've taken so much pride and effort into building and making their very own. As we showcase dozens of the hottest cars to grace our special military issue, we can only hope that this war will come to an end and peace be resolved soon, bringing back friends, family and loved ones.

1995 Mazda RX-7 FD3S
I decided to get an FD because I have always liked the sexy lines the car has. Even though it is 12-years old, it's still attractive and gets all kinds of looks. Plus the 50/50 weight balance makes it ideal for circuit racing, something I plan to do this season at Highland down in Sendai. Additional features which helped me in picking the car were that it is relatively low in weight and the power potential out of a 1.3 liter is unbelievable. I own a '68 Shelby Mustang (428 cu. in. motor), a '68 Camaro (383 cu. in. Stoker motor) and a '99 Dodge Dakota R/T (408 cu. in. Stoker motor) and having a forced induction twin turbo rotary is a completely different experience. My goal is to bring the FD back to the U.S. making it one of the few RHD original FD's in the United States.Special thanks to all Military personnel serving all around the globe, stay safe and return home soon. Thank you Import Tuner for dedicating a section to the troops.

The vehicle is a current work-in-progress but is mainly used in circuit and grip driving at numerous tracks around Japan. I would like to thank God for my family and for my success in life.
