LHD in Japan

[Taiju Kobayashi <portago@domain.elided>]

There is no RHD traffic in Japan now. Actually during the priod when 
Okinawa (southern isles) was occupied after WWII by US, Okinawa was RHD 
traffic but back to LHD in the beginning of 70s.
Currently I have got a LHD 75TS, which was the only version official 
importer offered.
Some of snobbish folks thinks it classy to drive a LHD car in Japan(in RHD 
traffic), but its absolutely nonsense.
For your info, FIAT/Alfa Japan offered only RHD 156TS/V6 at first hand, but 
they yield their RHD-policy to LHD-favor folks, and just started offering 
LHD 156s this spring...<sigh>.
