Cars Having That Bonnet Bulge?

[japthree]

Cars like the M3, IS-F, 350Z, Subaru Impreza including the Celica all have it, as expected, ... and so does the 'humble' IS200/300. What other 'humble/modest' cars have it?

Lexus ought to have carried over something to the IS250, be it the bonnet bulge or sports-style watch speedo.

Ford Capri's all had them.

on the IS200, it is functional in that it allows room for the engine, you would not be able to close the bonnet if it was not there

the subaru doesnt have a bulge, its an air intake for the intercooler, the same with the Celica, it is shaped like the way it is to create pressure over the charge cooler located underneath to draw away heat

Peugeot 205 Autos had them, for same reason as us, cos the auto box was bigger. Twas a common mod to put an auto bonnet on a manual car.
