How to be a boss in Japan, lesson one. Forget about covering your body with incredibly painful tattoos and carrying a sword around, yakuza don’t deserve as much respect as this guy.
This Toyota minivan from Japan has been tricked out using everything available in the tuning worlds and it looks like a freak show in wheels. It has a lowering suspension set, a full body kit, likely from Wald International, custom deep-dish wheels and the light show that will put a monument to shame.

But the really strange thing is that crazy wrap. It’s not about an anime, it’s about something called Cocaloid. This is a program that sings your melodies based on lyrical input. The people who made this famous (in Japan) software gave their first voice a name and a face. That’s Hatsune Miku, the girl with teal hear pasted all over the car. She’s so famous now that she has her own concerts.

One fan must love her so much that he covered his van in “Miku” and even dropped tons of yen on Swarovski chrysalis.

Is this a work of art of a crazy craft from Japan? You be the judge.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
