Japan: Cars and Bikes

That would be in keeping with the tidal wave of 4WD trucks & suv's sold in the good old US uv A every year...

99.9% have prolly never had the 4-lo clicked in, cept maybe by accident during the throes of barely middle aged passion, when a soccer mom'z foot takes an errant lurch...

Nice pics man! ...of course... Welcome back!
I also LOVE that yamaha and would sport one myself...

And this car:


reminds me of a 2004 Infiniti M45 which I really like (they look better in person) and seem to be pretty rare... it is not an M45 tho. COOL! This is an M45: http://www.freshalloy.com/forums/sho....php?p=1624129

Funny, but it looks like a Lincloln grille emblem.... though the car looks like a mild mannered, luxury GT-R. Baffling.

I think that's the point of the front body kit. The more I dig around JDM car sites the more I agree with pbkid, it does look most like the Toyota/Lexus, although the kit would have to include both the front fascia and a revised hood. Not cheap.

The 1st gen M45 was an abysmal failure... they had to kill production several years earlier than planned and go back to the drawing board. The designers were going for a muscle car look (which I assume is what appeals to a GM guy ) but unfortunately couldn't find any muscle car lovers in the Japanese luxury market.
