Default VIP magazine

Hello All,
Where can I purchase or order magazine that only deal with VIP cars? Are they only sold in Japan. I read alot about member saying that they can't stop reading or looking at pictures in the VIP magazine. Thanks

what part of CA are you in? go to any of the japanese supermarkets, they have the magazine section where you can find these. and of course if you go to places like mitsuwa, they have bookstores as well (i keep on forgetting the name of the bookstore)

In case you can't find it locally, you can order it here http://www.fujisan.com. I ordered a few from them before.

PVO....Thanks for the info. I'm heading down to Japan town in San Jose today and also mitsuwa in Saratoga. Will browse around to see what they have. I will try "fujisan" if I can find any. How long did it take for them to ship it to you?

OKC-GS400.....Small world, I too graduated from Logan. What are you doing in Oklahoma? I too just went to MemoryFab last week for the first time and meet Dave. Great guy.

It took about 3 weeks. It looks like the next issue has more info on the LS460 and kits

To be sure you get the current issue of a month, you should order it at the beginning of the month; otherwise you may not get the one you want.

You can find what's on the current issue here: http://www.geibunsha.co.jp.

Wow, seems like alot of Club Lexus members have finally accepted VIP style and is interested in modding that way.

I might be selling a couple coming soon, if you want one..PM me so I won't forget who you are.

These magazines rock, they're so thick and full of pictures and articles (I can't read) haha.
