Recent trip to Japan - Heavy Honda content

Hey guys, I'm from the UK but thought I'd share my pictures from my recent trip, even if they are all taken on my iPhone.

This one has been on the bucket list for a fair while, I went with two good friends and Honda enthusiasts, I had an amazing time and saw some of the best Honda's in the world. So for those interested I am pulling together a bit of a novice blog. It includes about 40% of Honda related activities so far, I have a lot more trawling to do but will keep it updated.

Some examples:

Cheers

Re: Recent trip to Japan - Heavy Honda content

Thanks again for the kind responses all, I appreciate that sharing my experience is being appreciated. It was genuinely a trip of a life time. I have just completed my trip to the Honda Collection Hall & Twin Ring Motegi, NA2-R in the wild too.

Re: Recent trip to Japan - Heavy Honda content

Checked out the blog, nice pictures, was curious about this hatch. You said "Captiva EG6 equipped with rare Enkei BBR compettion wheels and Osaka JDM front wings." Can you elborate on what "Osaka JDM front wings" are? There seem to be no shots of the front of it.
