That Honda Rafaga was something else, loved everything about that car meet, so much variety

Wow, a Yanko Camaro! Super cool, dealer only package. Yanko was a Chevy Dealer in that era and pioneered engine options to choose from. GM listened to what was going on with dealers offering bigger engine options, and part of this there where the SS models that followed from the Factory. Very cool video as usual, throttle down from Chicago ✌️ love all the classics!

[@echonomix_]

Thanks for the context!

Cherry Blossom falling and classic JDM cars nice way end work week.

[@Aznk1d]

@ 0:56 can we just appreciate the shifting and hearing that blip of throttle my cousin had a friend come over from japan, seeing him go CRAZY when he sees Camaro ZL1 and made me realize how we want cars from Japan and Japan wants cars from us... lmao

[@ghosty9051]

4:40 OMG thise cherry blossoms ARE SO PERFECT ON THAT CAR IN THAT MOMENT omg so beautiful that whole scene

This might be my favourite episode from you considering the variety of cars.

[@smallpebbleboy12]

I love relaxing videos like these, just the cars and the scenery

[@XenoDeki]

Damn this meetup is REALLY classy. A ton of very unique and rare cars featured here. Nice to see some variety in the older JDM cars and even some overseas gems.

love this style of video. Could listen to you talk about old cars all day.

[@onnelli]

I'm no expert on JDM, nor do I pretend to be, which is why I appreciate your videos so much. They teach me new things about Japanese cars, and also teaches me about general life in Japan for a typical car enthusiast

[@Sticker-Happy]

Fantastic event!! The cherry blossoms in bloom too, i really miss Japan.

[@KlaximumSkroeft]

I saw that clean looking renault in the back! Car channels never give french cars the love they deserve. I used to buy my grandads old french gt's and I loved all of them. Some very surprising tech for old cars..

how did you get in? Im so jealous

[@DantesGrill]

@@gebot. School. I've tried to start studying Japanese for over a year and was applied to a school last October. Had online lessons until March and once the borders opened I got my papers and left ASAP. I think that and JET teachers are the best/easiest ways to get in now.

[@StSparky]

At 13:30 - in the states they were sold as the Nissan Pulsar, and the rear was modular. The car had a standard trunk & you could buy the “Sport Back” as an inexpensive option. My fab former gf had a silver one. A real fun ride.

I love this video’s every second. There are so much beautiful and unique stuff thst I never heard and discovered, like the Honda Rafaga.

The shot of the toyota [REDACTED] with the RC F in the background was a cool little "then and now" view of big Toyota coupes :D And it's funny how much the Honda Rafaga reminds me of a Rover when Honda and Rover actually did work together, but with the Domani/Civic platform.
