Sports Car Junkyard in Japan looks Painful

The way in which people in Japan handle their cars once they pass away is different to the large wrecking yards we are all used to. We’ve brought along a video that showcases the way in which the land of the rising sun treats its rusty four-wheeled contraptions.

Instead of going for a hefty pile of vehicles, the Japansese rely on smaller junkyards and the one in the clip below is pretty special. This is some sort of a sports car collection and seeing quite a large number of special machines that have ended up in such a state can bring one in a pretty bad mood.

According to the uploader of the video, this appears to be an used car dealer or a mechanic who focuses the efforts on Mazdas. Of course, such activities require a constant supply of spare parts and the junk yard is where these come from.

The most obvious presence here is the Mazda RX-7, with multiple examples waiting around. The... facility is no stranger to the MX-5 / Miata though.

Other examples of special machines include a Nissan Silvia S14, a 20B-powered Eunos Cosmos, as well as vehicles wearing the Infinity badge. Of course, the sportscars are accompanied by more humble examples of JDM motoring.
