dude that's totally crazy.looks funny seeing a cavelier with the toyota crest, but you're right that yellow one is sweet. not to big on the eyelids, but everything else is, as borat would say, very nice

Yeah brings back memories! I even drove a right had drive Cavalier around the complex, boy was that weird! When I worked somewhere, I cannot say, I got a host of Toyota Cavalier parts for my 1998 Z24! Pretty cool to be basically the only one with these parts at the time! When I traded my Z I sold the parts off too.

yeah the whole right hand drive thing takes getting used to. i was riding in a bus in japan, and looked out the window, and this car is passing on the right, and the passenger (which i thought was the driver) has her head against the window sleeping. i did a double take and thought holy crap, that cars passing us and the driver's asleep at the wheel!!!!. then i realized i had to get used to seeing that
