Read my article on Rive Vs. Race. Then you will see where I'm coming from.
I agree, RHD does look cool. But it's not as impressive when it's been converted. Take a look at British cars: they were built in the RHD market, but plenty of them are LHD. And the owenrs don't go swapping to RHD when they don't have it.
I honestly think the JDM fad is really stupid. Every single Integra, Civic, and CRX have been built in Japan. Some were sold in America, but all were built in Japan. The guys who can rattle off what dumb JDM parts they have bore me to tears. The only JDM parts I care about are the ones that make you faster. My Sil-Eighty has a JDM SR20DET. That is impressive. It has the Silvia front end which saves nearly 40 pounds and is more aerodynamic. That is cool.
