I did a search on the web for Itasha or japanese anime cars & this whole thread showed up on one of them. It prolly caught her interest & registered. She also prolly never bothered to check out our avatars & sig pictures.Either there is a severe translation problem or something fishy is going on. How can a person on a miata forum not know what a miata looks like???
Thank you for teaching me, teacher. Your thought is exactly correct. Actually, I don't have good eyes to identify "This is roadster(We call roadster about Miata. Few people know the name MIATA in Japan)" like you in this forum. For sure I like to look cars and can identify Matsuda/Porsche/Ferrari because of the logo. But I can't confirm the model number by just looking that. So, I can identify this is from MAZDA if it has logo but couldn't identify the model name. And maybe it is two or three times that I have seen MIATA in Japan.That is also a MIATA w/ a pitcrew nose.
ROFL
In SAKURA's defense, i think she registered here on CR to promote her culture & the love for itasha. She has never owned a miata or so much had taken a glanced at them.
Im glad she registered here. There are a few peeps here, including myself, interested on doin this itasha thing to their car.
i wasnt offended. its actually my fault. i completely forgot that miatas are called roadsters in japan.Thank you for teaching me, teacher. Your thought is exactly correct.

And yes, I resisterd here because you have thread about "itasha" and someone posted "It is difficult to find something about itasha from Japan because of translation".
And I just thougt asking you about the name of cars is good idea because you would know much more about "car" although I may know more about "itasha".
I aporogize if I violate your love for MIATA. And thank you for your paicience. I would not ask the same question "what is this car" for MIATA.
Yes, it has MX-5 on the nose. This is completely my mistake. Sorry about that.The 2nd car is a miata. LOL
Thank you. I will update with the name.1. Car is porsche panamera
2. Mazda Rx-8
3. Alfa Romeo 156
4. ?
5. Mitsubishi Lan Evo
6. Eunos Roadster / Mazda Mx-5
Nice!This is Le-Seyde from Mitsuoka(I know the name of this car)
This car is sold only 500. Then, maybe this is only one Le-Seyde itasha all over the world
Mitsuoka is also famous for Orochi

For those who don't know, the Le-Seyde is basically a 'kit car' based on a S15 Silvia.
S13 man... S13... The doors give it away.
Yes, and from Japanese wiki, the 1st one is sold 500 and 2nd one sold 100.Actually you Are both right, The old version (in The pics) is based on The s13, The new is based on The s15.
My bad, didn't actually look at the pics haha.S13 man... S13... The doors give it away.
