Why is the steering wheel on the left side? When I was in Japan last fall, all the cars we drove were right hand drive because like many islands, they drive on the left side of the road.

The Huracan is available in RHD:

Strange, but of course they do far stranger things over there. I know the rules here are pics or it didn't happen so here you go:

Cool pic. Japan was long on my bucket list to visit. Blessed to have done it three years ago. Ultra modern cities. Spectacular natural beauty. Didn't see any Lambos though!

Glad you had a good time here! If you plan to visit again, there is a Tokyo motor shows once every 2 years - the next one should be around October 2017. I missed the last one, but plan to attend next year!

Just another update...my C2 left my garage today and gone for trade in. I admit I cried a little inside watching it's gone from my view. You don't know what you're missing until it's gone!

LOL anyway, the new car is going to be delivered to me around the 20th. Will update you guys with new photos at that time.

What's with the wait? In my experience whenever you buy a car from inventory, it's their goal to have it in your garage yesterday, hell or high watermelon. It can't be the PPF, I see from your pics they already put it on.

The car in the pics has paint coatings on. It does not have Xpel on yet.

Things move slower here because of their love with bureaucracy and order. Before the car can be registered, the storage space like your garage or parking spot must be inspected for storage license. It takes about 5 business days to wait for someone to come over to your house. After they bow to you a few times and the storage license is approved, the car can be registered which takes about 2-3 business days. I said business days as gov people don't work on weekends. I also need to get insurance, which takes about a day or two after the car registration. So overall, it takes about 2 weeks.

It's cool though. I have about 2 weeks to do summer cleaning and prep my garage for the new car LOL.
