We’ve had an incredible amount of responses to our request for feature cars and builds from around the world. Unfortunately we don’t have time to dedicate separate posts to all of them, but we still wanted to find a way to to celebrate the cars of our global audience and show appreciation to our readers. With that in mind, we came up the idea for the Thursday Shoutout. This will be a weekly post featuring a collection of 20 cool vehicles submitted by readers.
Let’s get started then.

i love that 106
Love the concept of this type of call out, but would it be too much to add a link with each picture that would take us either to their build or the little blurb they wrote along with other pictures?
Some look very interesting, but the limited info makes it a bit hard to track down.
more on the vw golf!

Very happy that there are 3 MX5s in this post. Very curious to find out what is under the hood of the Wreck Racing car.

@dangina Less on the Yaris. My Grans is hotter...
@dangina this is the build thread http://rat-look.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=7760
Nice! I'll take some shots of my AW11 MR2 this weekend and get 'em out to you!
Looks like a VG30ET with single turbo, but not 100%. The red valve covers say VG30ET to me...
I believe is a Ford 302 in there last time I read on Grassroot motorsport.
@Martijn M I absolutely love your 106!
@Elear It's a supercharged 1UZ-FE. The car was originally built for the Grassroots Motorsports Challenge, which is a budget racing event in the US. A GRM Challenge car must compete in autocross, drag racing, and a concours... while costing less than the year of the event in dollars (i.e. this year's budget is $2012). Here is Wreck Racing's official website:

It's my car. That's somewhat of an old photo--but I don't have any newer ones of the entire car. http://www.blozup.com
