You didn't know this? There are countries way more stringent with vehicles than the U.S., for example: in Singapore you have to pay a crazy yearly road tax if you have a car.

scherejs: Yup, unfortunately... The vehicle tax and fuel prices are prohibitive too. Not to mentioned the authorities rule with an iron hand with rgds to car mods.

Fyi, a Murcielargo costs S$1.2kmil, approximately US$720k here. DOUBLE OUCH.

donmeca2020: According to the workshop manual, the full name is "medium purplish grey mica"; same as the one they used in the MR launch press pix from MMC Japan. A JDM MR-specific colour... just like the new shade of blue for the JDM E9.

got boost: Nah... thx but no thx. I saw my ride wingless for all of 2min, not my cuppa mocha.

blewbuyou666: Not sure where to get Kansai stuff in the US dood; got it for ~USD700.

dizzigital: I honestly think it's the angle. The diameter of the knob is only 1.75" across... even a bit small for asian hands like mine!
