Hello, good morning all.
I'm more or less just here to promote any external work, though initially I was to begin assisting if not author some of the other posts that Linus would have done.
However, I'm going to be here to promote and assist with the formatting of some of the posts here and there, glad to be formally on board now.
Random assortment of questions you didn't ask, but I'll answer so you know me better.
Refer to Linus' introduction to know more because we share identical ideas, but I'll just toss in a few questions of identical theme anyways.
Favorite car?
Too much. Let's see, shall we.

Yeah, still a Daihatsu Charade GTti. Pocket rocket of the late 80's to early 90's, the first car to hit 100 horsepower per litre, 3-door configuration and a squared yet rounded rear shape. Its a win from me.

Two ways for this. I'm all in for a Honda Civic EK4. Mind, note I didn't say the configuration, as Singaporeans would normally do to differentiate between the sedan and hatchback. Let us just say that I want both. The JDM Civic EK4 SiR hatchback I'm all in for, but I'm also super keen on a EK4 Si sedan.
Bet you didn't know that the EK4 Si sedan is actually a thing. But the dream Honda is still a EK9 Type R.

B16B and stiffened chassis, I'm keen. I'm particularly keen on a silver one that is also a pre-facelift, if that combo actually exists and I'm not talking out of my...

Well, I'm pulled right in into Malaysian cars too. I wouldn't mod my dream Proton Satria GTi like this, stock rectangle dual exit exhaust system, stock wheels or Watanabe wheels... yeah that'd be it. Perhaps a steering wheel as silver-ish as the interior itself. Done deal.

Well, I'm all in for a Subaru Impreza WRX. A STi isn't necessary, just a WRX. The early wheels are chef's kiss, this variant of Impreza almost never gets coverage, and in the shade of red is pure.
I cannot be asked to find a SiR, so the Honda Civic Si, otherwise EF3, is to me, a nicer and much more attainable proposition. Checking with Efini and the rest of the editors, I can pick one for cheap for around 16-30k in Malaysia.

If I were to get a dream spec Nissan S13, I find the coupe cool, but I'm overexposed to the liftback Nissan 200SX. 1.8L CA18 turbo and the "Pignose" pre-facelift looks. I mean, the Type X is nice but in my opinion overdone. This is what I'd want to dig for.
Why write?
I like it more than talking, to be honest. I'm extremely awkward in a real scenario, mind you, but writing is both allowing me to just say whatever, and I can also keep track on it.

But why I write is also because I'm you could say a "poser" towards older media. Like the rest of the editors here, I'm keen on archival works, Singapore's ex-cars, and so much more. Its a piece of history we don't see anymore.
Goals?
