Reverse Fetish: LHD Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE86 in Japan

The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, so naturally in the US and Europe we love the JDM cars and RHD is actually a novelty. It is no different in Japan: they love USDM and EUDM car: in the past I’ve posted a few other reverse-fetishes. In this case it…




Reverse Fetish: USDM AE86 Gauge Cluster at Auctions Yahoo!

I’ve posted up a couple of reverse fetishes so far and I even posted an AE86 Gauge cluster before (which was wrongly indicated as EUDM).

Of course it looks nowhere…

Since I’m on holiday I went to the Dick Bruna museum with my wife and son last Tuesday. The small tribute museum to the creator of Miffy (aka Nijntje in Holland) is surely a lot of fun for kids and …. Japanese girls aged between 20 and 30! Yep, about 50% of the visitors (not…
