Some of the Japanese car's have some influence from Corvette, Jaguar, Lotus, and Citroen. Other's are definately free style. On the Russian cars, remember they drink alot of Vodka, which I suspect may have influenced some of these mods.

And the force of the future is Korean cars, and if you don't agree, just wait, you will see...

Those Russians look like refugees from the old beaterz.com website. Too bad that site is gone.

I often wonder how the S2000 came out looking SO GOOD compared to most the designs from Japan. They are not anything I'd want in my garage.
