For years now, the popular video series Hot Version has been pitting some of Japan's most highly tuned cars against each other. Sponsored touge battles held at the narrow Gunsai roads have become legendary, as triumph here is every bit as much due to driver as car. Becoming "King of the Hill"-as is the winner's title here-has become one of the most coveted accomplishments, and RE-Amemiya has always been one of the strongest contenders. After winning countless battles with their renowned baby blue FD3S, they've officially introduced a brand-new car, one they have named Maou. This retina-piercing, lime-green RX-7 grabbed the touge champion title in 2009, as documented in vol. 102 of Hot Version, and will be trying-like the previous blue machine which claimed Touge Max Champion status in 2006-2007-to dominate time-attack and drift competition in coming years. After seeing the car first hand under the lights of the Tokyo Auto Salon earlier this year, we tracked down Ken Amemiya for a one-on-one with the soon-to-be-legendary "King Devil", as its name translates in English.
