“Jalopnik contributor with a love for everything sketchy"... Well... Not everything apparently :)

Citroen SM?? The only car to actually let you know what’s gonna happen if you own it...

Yes, it’s a dealer plate as I was bringing the car back from Nagoya port when I took that picture and it wasn’t registered in anyway at the time. Didn’t have bolts soooo... tape it was! :)

Ive imported 4 of the newer PL17 in Japan. They are very unique for sure! I've even written about one actually: https://oppositelock.kinja.com/1963-panhard-pl17b-relmax-the-oppo-review-1725595392

This is NOT how it works. You can’t just call anything a “racecar”. It needs a racing passport, and to be imported indefinitely, it needs to be a factory built racecar, not some backyard hack you’ll call a racecar lol

USS Tokyo, located in Noda, usually has over 14000 cars on thursdays... It’s not only the biggest auction in Japan, it’s actually the biggest car auction in the world. USS Nagoya often has 10-12000 cars on fridays, I go there every week.
As for USS auctioning cars to foreigners, they don’t. In order to register to USS…

Way to be shocked for nothing and call everything racist... A company with a pranking horse as a logo uses a horse analogy to call one of their car... Color me surprised!

They literally already have.... it’s called Toyota City and most of my in-laws live there...
it’s there: https://goo.gl/maps/eoLQmAL94KDbQ2AS7

It was actually updated that he did leave from Kansai airport (45min-1h away from where I am) and not from Itami.

Private jets leave from anywhere they want... They can't arrive anywhere they want though.

I do the drive between Tokyo and Osaka regularly and I happen to live 10 minutes away from the airport he used to leave the country (Itami airport). It’s a domestic airport that doesn’t get anywhere close to the amount of security that the nearby Kansai International airport gets... The drive between Tokyo and here…

From Ghosn’s perspective, he’s innocent and he’s been very adamant about it in spite of the countless hours of interrogation by Japanese police and the way he’s been treated for over a year...  

There’s only one thing we know for sure: his conditions of detentions were inhumane and abusive. That alone justifies his escape. The rest will be up to him indeed... But there's no need to presume him guilty or pretend that he might have escaped because he has things to hide... After the last year he spent, I…

You’re an idiot... Don’t comment if you don’t know...

I live in Japan... 99% of conviction rate... Years in jail until you confess something... inhumane jail conditions... His trial was to be delayed and delayed and delayed... All that while being forbidden to get in contact with his family... It doesn’t matter if he is guilty or innocent in Japan... He would end up in…

He was born in Brazil... Moved to Lebanon when he was 6. That’s why he also have a Brazilian passport.

His grand father is Lebanese and emigrated to Brazil where Carlos was born and lived until he was 6 year old... He then went back to Lebanon where he grew up before going to France. As they speak French in Liban, he moved to France for his studies. You sound like an idiot... It’s not like he’s accumulating passports…

There seems to be a bit of a lack of understanding as to what Interpol does here... Interpol doesn’t “want” Carlos Ghosn. It’s the equivalent of AutoTempest for Police forces around the world... It helps Police forces to get in contact with each other and cooperate on international cases. Japan wants Carlos Ghosn and…

I live in Japan and totally agree... He would have never had a fair trial here. Many, many things I love about Japan, but their judicial system is fucked... fucked as in “guilty until proven innocent” fucked. And it’s even worse if you’re a foreigner... It’s time for the dinosaurs in power in this country to move…

Later Aristo 2jz-gte are actually better newer versions of the 2jz with VVTI that Supra didn’t get.
