Japanese and American car design

>at some point

Also known as 2006 when American companies decided to capitalize on the retro revival trend that was driven by the nostalgia of moneyed boomers and hispter youth. Before this, they all followed the same global trends. 90s mustangs and bromaro's look pretty "tuner"-like.

the Japanese were copying american and european designs obviously

thats not really true

>>15459073
there's a reason the skyline is smaller (hint: pee pee size :D)

>>15459082
and how many japs have you seen

>>15459085
I watch enough JAV's to know, friendo

>>15458983
If you ask me, for the same reason early Hyundais looked a lot like other cars. the LC and LC2 Accents are damningly similar to a BMW E36/5, for example.

until you've got a reputation and brand image, stick with what works. it takes balls to take the risk to start off your own styling.
I'm going to quote Mr. Regular, here :
Subaru, for years, was that company that made 'those weird boxy cars' that school PE teachers drove. that's in part why the SVX failed miserably. it was a weird car that was made before Subaru had a reputation for factory Turbos + AWD and a rally history under it's belt.

>>15459095
>finally all this cringe-worthy Jav-watching pays off for me

>>15459108
no the svx needed a 5 speed

>>15459108
You'd think that if you have a team of designers sketch out a new "style" for your lineage of cars, and you thought "that looks nice", then most other people would to. Unless you're a fucking moron with no taste whatsoever. Like whoever designed that Pontiac Aztek

>>15459113
Asian women are aesthetic as fuck, plus I'm white so all the Asian bitches love me

>>15459128
i married one

>>15459135
Is she Asian-American?

Tbqh only Korean and Japanese women are attractive to me, Chinese women have something that puts me off...

So I guess I don't mean "Asian women" are aesthetic when that would include a lot of different people

>>15458983
mainly because America rebuilt japan after WW2 so the designed were affected by America the most. Eventually, as Japan became self-sufficient, the designs became original

Where do I find qt asians? America btw

>>15459177
I'm in America too, but you could literally just go on like Facebook or whatever gooks use and like hit some of them up. Start a long distance relationship, get nudes, then move there and pound her shit all day. You don't need to learn Japanese or Korean or whatever because she speaks both languages and can translate for you. I'm not sure how you could become a citizen but you could try marrying her.

Trust me anon, whatever your plans are, disregard them. This is how you want to spend your future.

And no, I haven't done this, I'm having trouble finding a qt Asian girl that actually speaks decent English.

the japs are weird when they're left to their own devices and I suspect even in the 70's they knew this

Really?

>>15459198
Yeah but that's ugly as sin anon, what is that? Some corolla?

>>15459200
I have no clue how to find Asian bitches. Maybe the reason I am having so much trouble is because I use Facebook.

I'm sorry.

Which leaves you wondering just how it is that the Japanese were able to come up with those very sensible and classic designs back in the mid- late 90s (while Detroit was releasing some extremely sorry exteriors)

Supra, Skyline, RX7, Lexus LS, Camry e.t.c...... these things looked decent.

>>15459210
How about going outside and talking to them?

>>15459309
>>imply the rx7 didn't rip off the viper concept car.

Where am I supposed to find cute Korean and Jap bitches exactly?

>>15459334
>go outside
Where? In America all you'll find is spics, niggers, and normal people. Gooks are difficult to come by especially anywhere not on the West coast.

That girl ugly nigga

best thing is how they ripped off everyone else and made it better

>>15460605

That's the difference between China and japan

Both rip everyone off
Japan improves on it, china makes it cheaper.

The got a british guy to help datsun and toyota rebuild and become profitable auto makers. He showed them how Austin, Morris, etc made cars and their techniques in developing quality automobiles.

But Japan didn't have to deal with first world standards of living for it's workers (at first), and unions were less of a problem. They also made their cars objectively better by making them cheaper and more reliable with copied styling and technology.

The japanese beat what were the biggest carmaking countries at their own game. Detroit and the British motor industry turned into what they are partially as a result of how those countries helped japan back onto it's feet.

I got this exact feeling for this. It's a Skyline, but it's not a Nissan. It was built by some company called Prince, which later got bought up by Nissan.

Once again, that year of Coronet was release a year after the Skyline was.

>>15458983
They didn't copy anything, that was just the global trends back then. We just associate that look with American cars because most of us are American. In 40 years, a 2015 Corolla and a 2015 Impala won't look that different either; they will just look like two old cars.

Somewhere other than where you are, apparently. Also, Asian girls are really high maintenance and most are boring in bed. I think second generation asians and half breeds are where it's at.
