Remembering Japanese cars from the past
I found another one:
It is a compilation of two other advertisements and that’s probably why I didn’t notice it before and thought it was a double.
It is a crossover of the Puppy saving TA63 Carina advertisement and another one…
Puppy saving advertisement doesn’t work anymore on Youtube, so I added this advertisement here:
Look at what I found on Photobucket:
A white Toyota Carina DX TA60 which looks like new!!
I wonder what the colorcode would be… Maybe it has the same code as mine and features also an automatic… Maybe I can swap the car during the night and nobody notices!! ;)
Just found this 1983 Toyota Carina advertisement on Youtube:
Powerwindows, powersteering and stains on the seats? Sounds like a Carina MyRoad! ;)
Too bad the first video of the previous posting isn’t working anymore:
More carina ads I posted in March 2008. Perhaps I should collect them as Flash video files and store them locally here. ;)
I watched the first 7 minutes of Initial D Extra Stage 2 Japanese raw I found somewhere on the net.
First impression: nice cartoony graphics during the intro. :)
Second impression: too bad they didn’t continue with that during the rest of the episode. :(
So far it looks like Mako is missing Iketani and the Akina Speedstars decide to take a drive up Mount Akina. Nothing much happening so far:
What I like is usage of the split screen graphics, just like in the episodes in Stage 4. The screenshot above of the four different Akina Speedstars cars (Takumi’s Corolla Levin AE86, Itsuki’s Corolla Levin AE85, Iketani’s Silvia S13 and Kenji’s 180SX RPS13) show nice usage of this. Hopefully this will also feature more during the battles. :)
Overall I think the quality of the graphics is as good as we saw in Stage 4. I actually did expect it to be another improvement as we saw during Stage 4. Music was again by Move and the soundtrack sounded catchy and not too Eurobeat.
Can’t wait to watch the rest of the movie! :)
Yesterday I finally picked up the Aazuma package from the postoffice. Unfortunately I haven’t had the time to look at it yet… One of the great things of having children: absolutely no time left at all. I already use up a lot of time for being admin of AEU86 and having Megadik as a blog as well.. :(
I’ll open the package later today and try to make some pics later for here as well…
I saw this immaculate blue Toyota Carina DX TA60 for sale earlier this week on Marktplaats. I decided to put it up here because it is in mint condition!!
Just have a look how clean this Carina is:
This Carina only drove 37000 kilometers, so it is not surprisingly this car is in such good condition! Only the rims are the ugly factory rims… But a set of Celica Supra rims would solve than immediately. ;)
Same goes for the interior of the car:
Amazing! It is cleaner than my Carina!! It only lacks seatbelts in the rear of the car, otherwise I would that given it a thought upon swapping the car for mine! :)
Only the price is a bit steep: 4000 euros!
Anyone wants to buy mine for 4500 euros then?? It’s got Celica Supra rims and rear seatbelts, so it is definitely worth more than this one! :P
