I received an email with this super pink & terribly cute Honda Airwave Itasha [痛車(い たしゃ)] attached. Kinda proud that there’s a significant increase in such interest in our small market now.

I was happily　Ψ(｀∇´)Ψ scrolling down the email and was pleasantly enthralled by each pic until. . . I reached the last one . . .

Even the engine’s pink!

Looks like a merchandise shop to me!

And the display can be changed! If i ever get kidnapped I’d wanna be locked up in this boot!

Yup this one showcasing the PSPs . . .　(ﾟДﾟ；≡；ﾟдﾟ)

The installed PSPs are STILL working its enigma on me and it felt as if I’ve been hit by a thunderstorm. Okok thats a bit too exaggerating but I was surprisingly put off by the bipolar mismatch of Niteno & PSP. It’s as if the clash of the titans just bulldozed me over. Wouldn’t a simple a DS or DS Lite do the trick? Having the PSPs installed there just threw off the entire balance of the whole universe!　(・ω・　)ﾓﾆｭ?

Anyway I still don’t know why pink but this car’s definitely bright enough – certainly adds some flavour to the boring roads of Singapore

*****

Itasha(s) (痛車(い たしゃ))are cars that are plastered with huge anime or game characters stickies. Such effort would only be worth the passion of an Otaku as cars in Singapore are really Ka-ching Ka-chingly expensive also, people here usually want to avoid attracting too much attention (you know, just in case you happen to speed through a red light) !

Some other heavily plastered cars I’ve seen over the past few moons :

Vincent & Kingdom Hearts from an Autoshow last year

This one’s a real drifter!
