By looking at the first pic, I thought it was some horribly modded Bimmer!

I'd drive that...if I lived in Japan.

If I lived in Japan, I'd drive a Wrangler, just for the sheer confusion.

Or an F150. Not even a good one, just some old mediocre F150.

IT LOOKS LIKE A TERRIBLE 300C THATS BEEN TURNED INTO AN EVEN MORE TERRIBLE REPLICA BENTLE AZURE.

No fed would ever pull you over. It looks like any other dumb stanced car.

So every cop would pull you over.

Good. Let cops ticket you for ruining your car.

(I'm clearly not a stance person)

I think it can look amazing if it's done right, but it's not my thing.

A 90's F150 with the twin I beam front suspension. . . That would be epic. Can't forget the rust.

Lowering your car is fine, but if you plan on driving on the street ever, don't mess with your camber.

Even the wee bits of camber use on race cars are for RACE CARS. They don't have to drive to school and Kwiky-Mart and down to Turkey Hill for a Fizzy-Izzy. Might as well save your money preserving your tires.

Bro, do you even JDM?

The car probably cost a lot to get here, and they are probably just trying to cover those costs. I personally like Cedrics, there's so much potential in a car like that. It looks like they've also done a reasonable job with the mods.

Sure, it's a lot of money, but it's not like you have a whole bunch of options in buying this car. I bet they'll get $16K for this.

BTW, Florida is car heaven, no salt, no rust, no ice, you're good to ride in a convertible 365 days a year. We have some of the best tracks in the country, and have you seen our ROADS?!?! Thanks to the tourism and citrus industries we have easily the best roads in the country. When Floridians go to car shows in other states that aren't California, we just snicker, as we have for this entire past Winter. How does it feel to be snickered at Jay?

Illegal I'm pretty sure. Because they're just barely legal for Canada

8k USD at Japan auctions for a low mileage one with all the VIP goodies. $10k in travel expenses @their prices

Money Hustard > N/A POWAAAHH
02/11/2014 at 20:02

I know I wouldn't want to go through that process. Also, who is selling people cars at auction prices? It's more like $2,000 in international travel expenses and the rest is taxes and headaches. It's a totally reasonable price. It probably wouldn't be if there were scads of these things for sale in the US, but there aren't.

All JDM jokes aside, I really do want a RHD car.

Just to throw the keys to my friends, tell them they can drive, enter the right side of the car, and then take the keys back.

It would never get old.

Jay Lauer > Money Hustard
02/12/2014 at 10:26

Floridians still put Landau tops on Toyota Camrys. Your argument is invalid.

You see that more per capita in GA than FL actually, and not in the past 10-15 years. I'm sure whatever state your in, I could identify an automotive sin that at least .0001% of drivers there are committing that's just as foul.

Yeah, we have a bunch of old people here, but bear in mind it's just a distillation of the entire country's populace. Every bit of bad taste from every state comes through here. It doesn't mean the natives aren't taking full advantage though.

It's one thing to say Florida is whacky because of all the strange news stories that come out of here, but when it comes to motoring it just doesn't make any sense.

Spoonman929RR > Jay Lauer

You know that would be really funny. That, going through the drive thru and ATM backwards and freaking people out would be great too.

On the other hand, passing people sucks.

I have to physically stop myself when I see Postal Service Subaru's and Wrangler's for sale.

I'm sure it's only a novelty, and after a while RHD would feel like more of a burden than a commodity, but I want one. Bad.

But if I'm going to have a RHD car, I'm not getting that car I posted, I'd rather have a 240sx or a WRX or a postal Wrangler.
