    added feature??? perhaps a unique happening, dont think the car comes with auto lock but definitely will keep in mind as a good lesson to not leave keys in the car.

    Japan Winding Road Drive: Ome -> Okutama -> Kofu - Sunday March 30

    Love that the car ahead is minding his own business without breaking in to the pressure of @virtualmacho’s vicious Emira gaining in. But you do have to respect the utility and practicality that the Japanese K-trucks provide 😂

    RHD V6 Cars, air noise behind your right ear

    I have this on my car too (RHD). Just got my car back from paint blistering repair so thought it might have something to do with the installation of the door panels and the air seals weren’t right, but then noticed that the hissing only comes when the clutch is in gear. I am pretty sure that...

    Japan - Emira Ownership (エミーラ納車とその後)

    Took me a while to realize that seriously is actually a name and that you weren’t indicating that when you’re in the emira it’s all about driving fun and foolish (and not seriously) 😄

    Poll for Those with Paint Blistering / Bubbling Defect

    Have no idea of the manufacture date. I don’t think the Japan cars have a sticker indicating like the other markets (or maybe I haven’t looked hard enough to find it). Could possibly be a 2023 make as I think the majority of cars were already shipped to Japan summer of 23 but PDI capacity was...

    Action Cam Mount via tow hook

    Thanks @Porter for your advice! Surely there may be some local distributors who carry the product but ordering direct wasn’t such a pain, shipping costs to Japan was about 40 bucks so not a biggie as once we split, can bring it down to about 10 bucks a head. Will report back once I get my...
