Thou shall not JDM...

So I had a run in with a somewhat confusing car tonight...
Im driving along minding my own business when a pair of aftermarket HIDs appear in my rear vision mirror with very yellow fogs in true JDM style.
I think 'Maad! Lets see how clean this ride is!' So I keep cruising at the speed limit patiently waiting for him to pass me. About a click later finally he pulls out and I can see what it is... Its white, with black wheels. Win. Its got vinyl wrapped side skirts - the vinyl that looks like sticker bomb from afar but crap close up. Eh, I can live with that. He pulls up at the lights next to me and I can see that the wheels are watanabe style, that look to have been liquid wrapped in carbonfibre print. Nice, I like the cf touch.
Now all this mods should point to a relatively JDM car... But not in this case, because today it was a VE Statesman.
And that just does it for me.
