Thanks to Kwik!Gti on VW Vortex for capturing this new Japanese subculture. Just like the, Heavy Sound post, these Dodge vans are something fresh and very new that seems to have some following, even if it is small now. Group "Youga Base!" are leading the way. :) Seems pretty interesting, I guess they've already run race/drift events at Ebisu! It's great to witness this so early on, as it begins to give...

Dark chrome aviators reflecting the back of a Kia Sephia with the plate "BNEBBYS" back at it's retarded self. Man, you are the king of the North American roads.
