Oddly to start off i i always look for the American Muscle cars and European cars in Tokyo Auto Salon each Year brings up all the wild and innovative tuners around Japan. It’s not SEMA big but none the less worth wild to come to japan and experience it at least once if you’re a car guy/gal.

You can really see in the Japanese car culture the influences in designs that get borrowed as i would lightly say it from European and even some American cars at times. That’s on the tuner builder side as for the spectators this  is where people all around the world come in and check out whats new in Japan .

Coming in the Morning and there already a full line of people waiting to come and check out the show! From Media to Salary man at the auto messe.

One of the cars that was one of the best around is S14 Zenki. this is the first time around that he brought a Zenki model out.

The Details on these cars as so amazing even the pictures can only capture the jist of them.

Nearly at every booth there was a Car model and they were of course the tons of many photographers in groups going wild for pictures of these girls. It’s always interested thing to me seeing a large amount of men waiting for hours to take pictures of the modest with the car in Japan vs what i get to see in Germany or back in the states USA.

As i mention before about the impact of Japanese styling in a German cars. I’m sure eventually pandem/Rocket bunny will design hid flavor into American muscle cars . I have owned several BMWs including this body still a M3 E92 not sure this on a M but a non M wouldn’t be such an issue.

 

 

 

 

I really like Mercedes GT cars and the widebody on this was perfect !
