JDM 3rd Gen Sighting in Vegas

the other day I was driving my civic.....lol....any how, so im crusing along and then my girlfriend says "hey babe, look! its our car." im thinking yeah sure like your really paying attention to another civic. then she goes "why does that rx7 look different?" so i glance over and sure enough theres a ******* JDM RX7 right next to me. so we pull to the light. roll down the window drooling......my girl goes "nice car, i have one too! it's a R1" he looks over and says "Cool. yeah, this is a nice car." then rolls up his window. Im like WTF so im checking it out. Im thinking it was the montego blue color beacuse it was green. but it was cloudy out too. Bad ***. made my day but the guy was kinda stuck up. guess i would be too if i had one. just thought id let you guys know.......

Are you sure it was not just a US spec FD with the JDM bumper, lights, etc...? It sounds like from your description it was LHD right (your girl in the passenger seat was talking to him out her window)? Wouldn't a JDM car be RHD?

As soon as I saw Vegas in the title, I knew it too.


Looks like that clown hasn't been able to sell it yet. Soon it's going to be for free All thanks to Dom.

hahahaa......nahh, ill leave him alone. BUT hes right as for how nevada works. they really dont care what it is as long as you got INS, smog check, and a title. however doms point about the papers for legality, i have no idea. i figured he was just cruzing through vegas. i didnt know he lived here. kinda cool though. this topic is dead now though.

Late!
