Top Gear goes to Japan for challenge {Autoblog}
Feb 5th 2008 9:15AM Given that the new year's issue of Top Gear mag was full of stories about the guys driving in Japan, wouldn't that mean taping is already over and done with? Too bad, it would be pretty awesome if I drove down to Daikoku and JC was there with the Stig
A-OKei: Suzuki Palette arrives in Japan {Autoblog}
Jan 24th 2008 7:23PM As someone who actually lives and drives in Japan, kei cars are a blight which need to be eradicated from the earth. Nothing is more annoying than a line of cars moving 10kph under the speed limit because a kei car is having trouble getting up a hill.
D1 Grand Prix: USA versus Japan {Autoblog}
Nov 28th 2007 3:48AM Dunno how much of a true U.S. vs Japan matchup this was. That same weekend I was watching the MSC challenge in Tokyo, which was definitely a lower-level competition, but it featured a D1GP champion as one of the judges, and last year's Formula D champions from America and the UK. So both sides might not have been playing with their best lineup.
Will Dodge's marketing push in Japan work? {Autoblog}
Jun 28th 2007 12:28AM there are already grand cherokees here in Japan, but I think they're older ones. Basically, Japanese people will not buy foreign products if there is a viable Japanese equivalent. They might like some American stuff like McDonald's, but thats about it. I don't think any of these Dodge cars have a chance, except for maybe the Charger, since there is nothing remotely close to a muscle car right now from a Japanese manufacturer. For the Nitro and Caliber, Japanese people will just turn to hotter hatches from toyota or honda.

May 24th 2007 6:16PM it's not a 1JZ-GTE, because the 1JZ is 2.5 litres, not 3, and a twin turbo. Why he didn't put in a 2JZ-GTE I dunno...
