When a Caricature Comes to Life: Super GT NSX

This is something I simply just don’t understand. Last time I was in Tokyo I took a picture of this Super GT NSX car. This photo was taken because it was the largest, most idiotic exhaust I’ve ever seen and I needed a photo as proof to explain to someone just how ridiculous it is. I still don’t know how to explain it… it’s like a caricature of a race car come to life.

I’m sure there must be a reason for that exhaust, but I have no idea what it is besides a joke or a marketing plan for Super GT to gain six year old fans.
