rhd vs. lhd

are right hand drive 3rd gens rarer than left hand drive. i notice that everyone would opt to switching to jdm right hand drive. left hand drive is cool too right considering that there are fewer?

yea you would be really cool if you had a lhd car in japan... or england... or the land down under... but here in the states and the rest of the world who drive on the "RIGHT" side of the road, it would be cooler to have a rhd car because you would be different from everyone else

i would of said lhd would be rarer with the huge amounts of rhd in japan. Also many other european countries. There are around 700ish rhd FDs i reckon in the UK now at most

i wouldnt consider it cool to have a lhd car in the uk, just a bit daft and annoying.

rhd is the right side, japan drives on that side and we cant argue with the country that gave birth to our beloved FD

I would have to say that they are since so many more were made in other countries.

I agree that there are prob. fewer LHD vehicles. My question is this: are there any RHD fd's in the US. I don't mean a parts car that you cannot drive and I'm not asking if you can import them so don't jump don't my back. I have never seen a RHD fd in the US, on public roads, and wonder if anyone else has.

RHD would be cool, but i would not want to race like that. It would be wierd because of what ime used to.
i wouldnt mind a skyline though.
