At least 34 F40s + 1 F50 at a meeting in Japan. Only one of them is stock, the rest are all tuned of course

There's only 18 in the videos but I count at least 34 in the pictures
Then again the F50's the best car there

There is this one Japanese F50 that the owner has put a body kit on




Its painful to look at.


This right here is why the F50 is 2x better than the F40, sound.

GREAT video! I love how you hear the F50 long before you see it.

And the first post has officially made me start planning a Japan vacation...

EVERY meet I have seen in Japan has been out of control ballers. Nobody keeps their car remotely stock.
It was funny to see OZ wheels on an Italian supercar. Now I have to get some for the NSX.

Thats what got me. I've always noticed that with Hondas, Nissans, Toyotas, etc.. but had never realized that Ferraris & other exotics where the same way. I figured the tuned versions you see were the exceptions, not the majority. Thats badass!

Have you seen this one? http://youtube.com/watch?v=qf1bk0TGyoU
The F50 has been my favorite car for as long as I remember, and with the Tubi exhaust it is even more perfect.

Sick. "that's amazing" as the guy in the vid keeps saying.
Glad to see a f-car being driven for real.

there are PLENTY of ricers in japan too. but japan does have higher quality tuning shop than the states IMO. I dunno why but the meets in Japan are insane. Even the lowrider meets in yokohama or odaiba is nuts.

That's exactly what we're missing here in the states. Wow!
