One car that stood out to me at Toyota Land, Tokyo, was the Toyota Mark X.  The specific name for this concept is the “Toyota Mark X ZiO TGDA Concept”.  It is shaped similar to the US Toyota Venza, but with a bit sportier stance and shape.  Thanks to Motormavens for the awesome pictures.  This [...]

Thanks goes to RA64FREDDY for showing off a couple pics of this very nice Honda Fit from Indonesia.  With a staggered wheel setup, low stance, and Noblesse aero kit, you can’t go wrong on this Fit.

Here’s Logan from iputinWORK showing that the new Fit can look sporty and slick on a set of Work wheels.  [...]

Came across this Japanese company, K-Spec, that produces aero parts/body kits and exhausts/mufflers for Japanese vans and K-cars.  Their aero parts division goes under the smooth name of “Silk”.   They go along a bit with the VIP theme with the large bumpers and huge muffler tips.  I love the fog lights they add to [...]

I was browsing an old Style Wagon Club magazine brought back from Japan and came across an ad for wheels from BADX Japan.  Most of the wheels they produce are aimed at sub-compacts/smaller cars and have a dimensional face to them with the use of contrasting colors and depth.  The wheel pictured above is the [...]

Found the above image browsing on Japanese seat cover maker Y-Brand’s website and had to enjoy the English translation.  But then I got thinking at how cool the Japanese spec bB (xB) is pictured on the right.  To me, it seems like more of a big brother to the 1st gen xB than the US [...]

Another interesting take of Japanese tuning – Euro style.  One shop that specializes this, located in Japan, is Euro Mode Egoist.  They take Japanese sub-compacts and transform them in to European styled machines.  I love this red Honda Fit with great stance and subtle exterior upgrades, such as this dual exhaust tip with surrounding diffuser [...]

SSR Wheels, made in Japan and also featured on our SEMA Cube, have outfitted this new Honda Fit with their Type-F wheels.  The race prepared look is helped by a Carbon Fiber hood and INGS+1 body kit. This would for sure be a fun grocery getter!

Saw this at the Jon Sibal blog and had to post it…  What you see is not a BMW Van (those don’t exist), but a JDM Honda Odyssey with a front end BMW E92 3-series conversion.  Front end conversions (especially with different car manufacturers altogether) are hard to pull off, but this looks so well [...]

Props to Dino Dalle Carbonare from Speedhunters.com for snapping these pics of the makeshift vanning/kei-car show held in the parking lot at Fuji Speedway, Japan during the professional D1GP drift event.  A lot of interesting styling with these cars, with wheel stance spot on and club-like interiors.  I like that this style is so original [...]

Dajap from ScionLife/ClubxB/Style bB used to have this VIP styled xB with immaculate attention to detail along with the finest JDM parts.  “Quality over Quantity” is the motto of Style bB and the owner of this car.
Airbag suspension paired up with the Work Euroline wheels in low offset (+12 in rear!) makes for a great [...]
