My life in Osaka

[dean_jdm1]

The thread is to share my journey of Japan while living out in Osaka, have a big passion for Japanese cars and from time to time will share the cars I see as well as cars I am testing before deciding which car to have, this will be video blog via YouTube.

At the weekend I went to test drive the new Supra, always wanted the A80 version but thought I'd have a look and test drive the new one. A close up look for the people who have not seen one up close yet, couldn't really test the car while out driving due to the garage following behind me.

If you interested to follow my journey, subscribe to the channel, I'm sure you will see some stunning and rare vehicles. Also starting Twitter, feel free to add me @dean_jdm1

Now using my time in Japan to learn a bit of editing tools, still very new but taken some common creative videos to make up a video of some cool JDM cars.

Another trip to Osaka garage, this one with around 100 JDM cars from 90's and early 2000's. Was a great day out and wish I could buy so many of them.

Visited a car garage in the north of Osaka, some nice GT-Rs there. First time I have spoken live in the video, need to improve on speaking with confidence but I will get there with practice.

I'd like to stay in Japan for a vacation. I'd love to see the car garages there.

If you love these cars then its well worth it, still have so much still to see but my wife keeps dragging me along to temples lol.
First garage I have visited for a while, some nice motors and at a decent price.

Had my first visit to Up Garage here is Osaka, pretty mental place with loads of 2nd hand performance parts.

Haven't gone out too much lately but finally got to go and visit another garage.

Unfortunately not, what do you need translated? I could maybe get someone at my work to look at it.

Went back to the local dealer to see what they had in stock, some decent prices but some of the cars clearly have high mileage.
