Panda = Faster?

Well, i have seen a few episodes of initial D, and it seems to me, that the panda paint job makes the AE86 really scream.
Hmmmm, got me thinking.
I have 2 toyota crown wagons sitting in my driveway, that no one wants. Both are white.
If i paint them in the panda paint scheme, will they make the crowns faster around corners?
Could i sell one of them to an unsuspecting uneducated individual, and say that it is a "rare" 4 door version of the Initial D AE86? I swear, that they did use one of those "rare" 4 door types in "lost" initial D episode.
Food for thought?

HOT FRESH RUMOR:
I heard, from a good, reliable source, that the original concept was called , and get this people, " Initial C"
Story goes, that a certain tofu seller would sell tofu by the big boxful, and needed a fast machine, that handled, and went like the clappers.It was a MS53 crown wagon, with all the good bits. Hence the " C ", for crown. Later, when the orders slowed down, they decided to use an AE86 because it carried less, and went almost as fast, and seeing drifting was starting to become popular, they changed it to " Initial D "
It is also known that the original panda paint job, first seen on the MS53 special was a super rare option that was lost until revived by the AE86.
I am hunting down some leads, but someone told me there is one of these special panda crowns lurking away here in sydney 
I will try and hunt this super rare beast down, and once i find it, will try and take a pic or two for you all.
The hunt for the Initial C rare beast continues.
Wish me luck
