Default Japanese Vans

Ok , the japanese really are crazy, check out these modded vans. Lots of work goes into these creations, and they props for it, even though this is not my idea of a cup of tea.

baiscally these van owners are unique individuals who go against the grain, they are refered to as "yankees"

How the hell would you be able to drive the Long White or Purple one? Especially going up a driveway or over a bump. o.O?

True meaning of the word "losers". They take their silencers off and are so loud it is just not funny, try sleeping when you have a group of these idiots driving around at 3am . They should all be confiscated and burned.

By the looks to some of these vs im surprised they can even drive around,
seriously i know they have perfect roads in japan, but really? how can some of these vans evven take corners, why does the japanese road and transport authrorities allow these cars to get regisitered and do these guys get special permission from the police on public roads? its insane
