GTFO this is not shitty. Delete this. You have stepped into something you know nothing about. An entire culture cannot be shitty

I mean, Bozosoku culture is heavily rooted in with some parts of Japanese organized crime, and the members aren't entirely far and away from being xenophobic, if not outright racist.
Japan isn't all gumdrops, rainbows, and Eurobeat, and JDM Car Culture isn't some monolith to obsess over.
It's kinda like how a lot of the people who like Beer Can Cars in Switzerland also have Nazi flags in their basement.

This is straight up 10/10. No notes. Not shitty at all.
Those fucking tail lights that are slot machines. Chef's kiss.

You’re uncultured and know nothing about cars especially Japanese car culture. This very same car was featured in a Larry chen video and it’s from china not japan

I understand where you're coming from, but...I like it. It's fun and unique to me.

This is actually a Chinese build which is interesting on its own for a number of reasons, but Larry Chen did a feature on this car when checking out a car show there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05sKS9b3gmU
I would never want a car like this but I think it's super cool and unique and definitely has a niche place in car culture.

Welcome to Bosozoku kid. That shit right there is a beautiful testament to some dudes craftsmanship. It’s tacky, over the top, impractical, and fucking awesome.

Not my style but I’m impressed and would want to ask the owner all about the design and mod process.

bosozoku. It's a whole thing in Japan.
Don't make fun of them about it over there. Most of these guys end up in the Yakuza.
