[Nurburgring (North west Germany)] One of the most prominent car endurance race “Nurburgring 24hr race” will he held from 21~22 at this place.
Toyota Shouichirou (58), the president of Toyota Motor participates in the Lexus sports car "LFA".
The participation after assuming the office of the president is for the second consecutive year, is for driving one and a half hours with the Lexus sports car "LFA".
The Toyota president held the steering wheel in the car number 48 for about 1 hour on 21st, and about 30 minutes on 22nd, and finished it on the same day after 4pm by his own driving.
Toyota is participating from the year 2007 with the aim of car development and technical improvement of employee mechanic. The LFA and 86 have participated from the stage of the concept model.
Daihatsu Kogyo Co., Ltd. made the full model change of the light open sports car "COPEN", and made the nationwide market launch on June 19, 2014.
Among the 2 design models announced at the same time, the entry price of the “COPEN Robe” expressing the throb feeling and elegance as the sports car is US$17,800 (1,798,200 yen), and the sales has started.
The other “COPEN X (Copen Cross) model” is scheduled for sale in the autumn of 2014.
How the Japan market will show its reaction to the Copen that is being sold ahead of the HONDA Beat, is going to be very interesting.
If this Copen sells well, then I wish to see the revival of the vanished sports car activity like the NISSAN Sylvia, HONDA prelude, and MAZDA RX-7
NISSAN Sylvia
HONDA prelude
MAZDA RX-7
The Japanese car is energetic for the first time in the recent years.
