[@DukeICT]

That mini GT is awesome. You truly deserve it LC.

[@cheesepizza87]

Because I needed another hobby 🤣

[@TheZerosixz33]

I kept going back and forward from preordering and the video of the Mini GT part. I was sold with the packaging and preordered😂

[@MrMadmeads]

Y’all remember when this was a Hoonigan spin off channel called auto focus and Larry just came in and hit the ball outta the park into the next state

[@Skxdzyy]

Seeing Larry getting absolutely hyped over his own Mini GT diecast is such a treat 🥹🥹

[@nismox6460]

Thanks Larry you allow me to take trips and see builds I dream of

[@SPProduction02]

Also,the weird zagato car @ 11:20 Is an Autech Zagato Stelvio (like the italian mountain pass) AZ1

[@kevodean]

ty big dog, thing is a freakin piece of art, looks like a 90s concept car

[@SPProduction02]

​​@@kevodean originally i think it was... (Autech after all, its nissan's division that study weird s**t lol) but, according to wiki they made 200 of those

[@neilperry2224]

As a guy who collects, 1/64th die cast models. I have collected a couple of them and I'll be looking out for one. Looking good my man! Totally rad, you must stoked? And the car you were looking at, is the AUTECH ZAGATO AZ1 designed by Zagato and cost $110000. Well they need to have a harvest truck, to get their Weeeeeeeeed.

[@satchmosanzabar9023]

Thanks for giving us such a great view of the show floor Larry!

[@SomebodysNephew]

I love these videos man! I love looking at all the unique showcars. Thank you for making this content for us.

[@skeletonmandiecastcollector]

13:49, When Toyota was thinking of a 1989 Chevy K 1500 😂 lol. I think it looks cool 👍🏻

[@TexasModifiedINC]

ChevYota 👌🏼

[@stuartedward4402]

I'm a Subaru man but shit I'm so happy for you Jack. All the hard work you've put in and to see the smiles on your face in this video epitomises why us car guys do what we do. Well done, a car to be thoroughly proud of ❤

[@magruster]

Never been to the Tokyo Auto Salon before, but every year I watch videos from it and there always seems to be hidden gems just sitting in the parking lot.

[@LueXiong10]

Other countries have such awesome car culture but Japan’s execution and quality is still INSANE.

[@dcastenthusiaststudio7525]

I am not sure dude! Have you compared Japanese quality with others ?

[@LueXiong10]

@@dcastenthusiaststudio7525 Compared to who else? Name names bud, Japanese shops are top tier.

[@dcastenthusiaststudio7525]

@@j4259 First, compared to all brands (except Chinese cars). And oh sorry bruh, you only know Japanese cars, sorry it'll not be fair to continue the discussion

[@supercarspecifics]

from what I can gather about the stripped down R35 is that it's showcasing that you can do a R34 transimision on the Vr38 R35 eninge and be able to have it manual then also you can do it vice versa too on the R34 converted to and R35 motor

[@V1_JFN]

This video has me all giddy 😁 thanks Larry for showing us. I'd love to go one day.

[@hyphydan]

Purple R33 and that Blue RX7 w/IMSA wing 👍🏼

[@thehomelessproject3784]

35:49 what type of exhaust do you want ? Yes....

[@AbrahamArthemius]

That drift version of the GR Corolla was used by Kalle Rovanperä, one of Toyota's factory drivers in WRC and also the youngest ever World Rally Champion at just 22 years old (He's now a two-time world champion) at FD Japan last year. ----- GT500 are straight up prototype racecars with a road car silhouette on top capable of running alongside current Hypercar/GTP in WEC/IMSA (or even faster). Different case for the Supra GT300 though because GT300 still retains some parts from the actual road car.

[@AgeraRS7]

that is one of the best youtube video outro i've ever seen🔥

[@johnwayfix-it-or-mod-it]

I jumped on that pre-order for the 1/64 fast

[@MarcSob22]

THe blue F40 is perfect!!

[@BurpleRX7]

Bringing back so many memories, only flew back last week, I did tag you in the factory gear skyline tool kit and noticed you did visit. What an awesome shop. This trip I managed to get out to car shop lead and Jackpot which was dream come true stuff for me. Fortunately my friend Sohei can take me to these places (he also owns an awesome SA) and all he ever asks for is a bit of food. We do not deserve the Japanese people or the culture.

[@alexismerced2981]

Dude this 3 motorcycle looks amazing

[@adriancollins4747]

Putting a propane flame kit out all 12 tips would be insanely unique.

[@Queso305]

I preordered my Larry Chen z months ago... Can't wait to get it!

[@F1_Fangirl]

idk why im just subscribing! Amazing content.

[@racingmaniacgt1]

Class1 Super GT cars are the same rule as the final(non-GT3) generation of DTM car. They have a common tub with a production looking body on it and they all run a 2L turbo 4. They are faster than the old GT500 JGTC cars(pre-2016?) but somehow not as cool because they are not based on a production design. Old GT500 has some weird and wacky things about them...

[@budgetbuilt8838]

TAS is a dream, I needa get over there at some point in my life

[@nahknahk]

Stelvio Zagato! Super rare.

[@Dauntless.steadfast.fortitude]

Wow always epic content video audio commentary editing & humbleness, you rock LC !!

[@emidau]

Happy for you Larry 🎉

[@phillyphil1513]

11:35 - that's a take on the 1989-1991 Alfa Romeo Zagato SZ. it's a rare Italian car, and you have likely seen it, just not enough to recall the shape quickly from memory.

[@FaridFauzan2405]

I forgot to get there. I'm okay with that somehow. Maybe one day I will going to TAS..

[@Charlie_12x3]

Larry Chen will go down as a JDM legend with the most captivating photography and videography. Buying his signed prints will go very high in value with years that pass.

[@DefaultName-ql2os]

IMO the Madlane 911/ 935 tribute was the best of the whole show..

[@gumbootrallynz]

So cool “it’s me” love your passion mate

[@SuperDumasa]

yay 4k tokyo auto ssalon footage

[@kevodean]

beautiful preview

[@smudger6461]

What an achievement Larry, sooooo coooool. Super happy for you and what you do!. ❤

[@mugetsu5752]

Funny story I have is seeing the black carbon active R32 at SEMA a few years back and at the time I didn’t see or know Sakamoto-san but he was so excited and kind to show us his car and only afterwards did I find out who he was. He kinda appeared out of nowhere to us and just looked so happy to be there and show us around. Overall just such a cool and surreal experience.

[@davidboyce6427]

Thank you Larry 👀👍

[@gripautotimepieces]

Yellow mega cruiser is actually 4 Suzuki sierras joined together

[@angeloah]

The toy car made me well up dude. What a cool thing, congrats.

[@loganh3269]

28:14 For putting a technical on the back; we were all thinking it...

[@jdm3litecoulture-572]

Him laughing at the ridiculous cars did it for me 😂😂😂😂

[@purepalm9078]

Black logo. White disc. Reddish background. A superlative colour scheme. \o

[@bco529283]

OMG I love it 👍👍👍👍👍

[@speedacademydave]

Young Larry in that photo on the MiniGT box has serious BDE! 😆

[@_odamaru]

that carbon R33 is beautiful 🥲 so clean

[@thespicemelange.1]

You got to do more coverage on that little van or whatever it was next to that skyline. Just why does it exist is what is eating away at me.

[@kylerice9714]

Micro vans. 4x4

[@spiritlevelstudios]

lol

[@mikelyon5595]

The adventure continues!

[@Gotemhard]

That’s not a century, it’s a great value Rolls Royce now! 😤🤣 I love it though.

[@hk20000]

13:29 retro look on a modern truck is all the hype in Japan man

[@Vtecyo81]

Sakamoto-san is so friendly & the best carbon fibre maker!!!!! Luv his GTR's!!!!!

[@MSG1976]

I've noticed that your videos are mostly Toyota or Nissan, especially GTRs and Z cars, but for Tokyo Auto Salon, what does Honda, Mazda and other major JDMs have to offer???

[@hdoglesby]

Seems like those are Larry's favorites (look at all his personal vehicles) but may also have to do with Nissan and Toyota having a working relationship with him. I'm biased but I understand where you're coming from

[@itzerisadomeeiot4980]

priorities bru

[@KINGVONFRM063]

Honda and mazda are making crossover suvs😂

[@JC94]

Don’t worry. Him and Dino love to gloss over Lexus and luxury cars too 🙄

[@gav240z]

I reckon he should change the channel name to Larry GTR Chen.

[@BoxinSquare_]

i love your 240 Z scale model . I love Japan's car culture

[@Pvanderborg]

10:29 conversion kit , saw this on Sammit channel begin of the video

[@SPProduction02]

34:37 = The way that japanese name their stuff,will never cease to amaze me 🤣😂

[@hk20000]

31:04 this AE86 actually went to SEMA last year, hence the left hand drive. Car came to tec art off a container as a broken shell "I know what I got" typical $5000 shape.

[@j4259]

Sakamoto San has had carbon r32s before the grey one. The grey one was the first dry carbon one. The ones prior were wet carbon.

[@jonathanramoslexusmaster298]

10:50 if they set that mock-up gtr with an exo cage like Cleetus McFarland they could snatch a couple of world records with it

[@adamgilesconcoursdelegance9302]

I’ll have to get my 1975 Toyota Corona in a model.. had it since I was 15… 32 years old now and keeps evolving like your cool Z👌💪

[@cj41079]

Congrats on Mini GT! ❤❤

[@themadmallard]

@31:16 and LHD at that... crazy

[@phillyphil1513]

16:16 - PARADOX THE WRAPPER HAS JOINED THE CHAT...!!!😀

[@hk20000]

11:17 this is a Nissan Stelvio zagato based on the Nissan Leopard. Stelvio is Italian name for that "best windy road in the world". Doug Demuro did a q&f on it if you searched zagato and doug

what kind of rice do you like eating? me looking at 12 exhaust pipes: mixed wild rice

[@dabraka681]

12:11 Alfa Romeo SZ (Sprint Zagato) 1989 - 1991

[@kornonacob]

Japan is leading the world motorsport sector now thru their WEC Toyota n F1 Honda power plant..... Europeans n Americans got a long way to catch up if they can

[@georgedreisch2662]

Y’all oughta come up with a collaboration, to give Lucy and Lia’s new channel, “Block House Racing”, a boost… Way kewl getting your own die cast!

[@psnachtmuzik]

I need your MiniGT!

[@Smokey7186]

That carbon ae86 was also left hand drive... Larry didnt notice that

[@geraldschreiner9485]

❤

[@ossannamerica4913]

The reason why there was a shotgun in the Skyline Silhouette around 37:00 is a tribute of TV drama series "西部警察 (Seibu Keisatu)". The very popular police movie contracted with Nissan, and DR30 Skyline and S130 Fairlady became iconic cars in the 1980s drama series. The police leader Daimon shotsuspects with the shotgun from the cars in the every last scene of the stories. You can see the cars in following video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3yxnJVsZ5iFnqc

[@MrShadowofthewind]

That very first white R34 looks incredible, that's a very tastefull wide body.

[@JK061996]

Can't believe I missed the little Toyota truck, I must've thought it was another tuner build

[@JoeSmith-kt4sh]

You should sign that first mini GT.

[@Bubbershunter]

The blue toyota SUV looks like it has a square body chevy front end

[@lancewood1410]

The owner actually drifts that Crown with the bazzilion exhaust :P. KZbin videos hahahaha.

[@Skreamies]

Thanks for the awesome video Larry! MC12 is way better than the Enzo

[@JagImaging]

You should stop by the Subaru booth! Haha

[@kentbeitel9966]

Man Japan loves their models 😂🤷🏻‍♂️

[@j4259]

That toyota truck broke the internet because it costs around 10-15k and customizable truck bed. Can add to it and turn it to an RV. Lots of usage.

[@hk20000]

16:20 I wouldn't know but it's been around since 2005 TAS....

[@DJ_NOOB]

I've asked a couple of times in the comments but never have gotten a response. Do you think you'll ever be able to put out prints of the LBWK F40 from when you shot it last year?

[@donmelendez8224]

Congrats Larry on the Kaido House! But I noticed that the logo on the hood is different than on the doors. Is that intentional?

[@tahoeebikes]

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@alvinadams6054]

Dunno just wanted to say that yellow Toyota mini van would have looked cool with two old school Cerwin Vega strokers 15s or 18s in the back

[@vickturorteez]

That laurel is owned by a real famous shop; Mizuno Works

[@oneidawolf776]

Nice! I love weed!

[@peterga3658]

more Rotary videos plisx

[@DiscoR53]

The Toyota truck is the next insurgent mobile weapons platform.

[@danking6446]

yee ssr tomcat speed gotta know fam

[@TheColeWerner]

Did he say the r33 gtr headlights are going for like $20,000 usd?? Cuz I’m looking online and they’re like $2,000.. am I trippin??

[@zeus.edwards2662]

The strip out gtr is using an r34 gearbox.

[@lonesoldier2485]

At 36:00 would that be considered modern day Bosozoku?

[@roxx0rz]

I haven't seen any swapped Stageas so far! R34 and R35. It's not very common is it?

[@user-vy8fy3cz1s]

How about a "95" Acura legend resto mond, wide body kit ,small spoiler,dark burgundy paint over carbon with tan comfy interior with a LS7 engine swap twin turbos,or Acura/Honda equivalent,all you see is Toyota and Nissan's.Where all the sick as Hondas? There not popular in Japan?

[@zu_1455]

Immediately knew that blue guy was RE Amemiya before you said the name.

[@zu_1455]

Also that G nose proto Z is perfect.

[@zu_1455]

Those D.A.D Mercedes look straight out of an early '00 rap video.
