Summary

Driving cars in their country of origin could be a bucket list all by itself, so during the time period that Matt H. works as an English teacher in rural Japan, he wants to experience the local car flavors and roads there. Nick J. lives on Yonaguni Island in Japan as well, but when he moves to the U.S., he wants an ideal sports car to track and autocross -- so the guys offer up their suggestions. Finally, questions from social media include discussion about best cars that look like Darth Vader, how to figure out your car-buying budget, and why does size equate to luxury? Please rate and review the podcast on iTunes, the show on IMDB and Amazon Prime, and write to us at everydaydrivertv@gmail.com or everydaydriver.com. Thanks for listening and tell a friend! TV Season 3 on Velocity Channel continues through July, August and September 2018 at 7:30AM Eastern time. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
