Default meeting in japan

Was set 12 cars is 456GT.
Who knows, it may be only in meeting the world's largest 456GT.

Very nice set.
A beautifully understated car.

May you give us a little insight into Japanese automotive preferences?

Generally speaking, does Japan have a preference for manual vs. automatic (GTA) should the choice be available? What would be the ratio of manual vs GTA in the set?

Also, are there colors, options, and preferences that Japanese customers tend to specify?
For instance, with the exception of reds, the Middle East tends to shy away from darker interiors due to heat.

Thank you, and enjoy your driving!

Jun,...welcome to FL. Our administrator, Andrew, wanted more people to come on board from Japan. If you do not mind, I would like to translate your avatar name, Akaiakuma,...which is Red Devil, for other members' info.

Jun, ...I did not mean to suggest you change. I simply thought that others would benefit if they knew what it meant.


If you wish to change, I suggest to PM Boxer or Andrew to do it for you. Andrew should be back from his honeymoon in about a week or so.

Welcome: Of course I am partial to the metalizaato's

From the pics I see, all are certainly GT's which I am the most fond. I would do well in your club.
