Carina Sightings: Another AA63 drift missle

No votes yet

Two weeks ago I posted up a relatively cheap Carina AA63 drift missile only to discover another on Auctions Yahoo two weeks later!

Its current price is 50000 yen (615 US dollars) but reserve hasn't been met yet. At least this Carina is still in one piece so it could get a little bit more pricier than this.

The engine is quite impressive: a 4AGE 16 valve with independent throttle bodies!

Carina Sightings: pink shakotan Carina AA63

For my other blog Bosozoku Style I regularly visit various bosozoku style related sites. On AllJapanExpress I came across this pink shakotan Carina AA63:

Nicely lowered, overfenders and SSR Mk I rims at the rear. Just a few mods away from becoming a kaido racer! :)

I'm not sure what is worse on this Carina, the color or the bodywork:
Another pink picture on the next page!

I already posted this video in the Bosozoku Style Meeting Monday. The video contains a groundscrapingly low Carina RA45 on deep dished steelies at an Odaiba meeting earlier this month. The Carina clearly has some challenge with the conquering the pavement:

And that sound: lovely!

Around the world in 40 days

No, I'm not taking on any bets and certainly not going to do Michael Palins effort in half the time...
It is all about this envelope I received earlier this week: one of the orders for the Bosozoku Style Coloringbook than was returned to sender. Not that it is that odd, but what was odd was the state of the envelope:
Around the world in 40 days
Around the world in 40 days

It went all the way to New Zealand (about on the opposite site of the earth for me) and back in 40 days! I do use thick and heavy envelopes with a solid back to send it to the buyers who are not on the continent. And miraculously the contents survived well enough to be resent to the buyer (with a new address) so it was a good thing to take those precautions! :)
