i'd die to have a rhd


i don't get it, why would you want to have a rhd over a lhd??

It comes down to this... As Americans Naturally we want what we cannot have.... RHD is something that has always been forbidden from us due to how we are as a country.... It's not that RHD is better than LHD because preferably I would rather have LHD so that I may shift with my right hand.... The image that is brought along with RHD is superiority to us. We want to be superior even if we do it unintentionally.... The only rhd cars that we are exposed to are items like a Skyline GT-R, st-205, and other menacing beasts.... It's all just a mindframe basically... it would be the same if we were RHD and romas had a lhd.... I hope that made sense and wasn't just rambling

ok, kinda figured it was something along those lines. it's pretty much the opposite here though ... you can for example get rhd supras with a few goodies for like half the price of a lhd one here, so my next car may very well be a rhd supra biggrin.gif
