European Sports Car Collection Discovered at Japanese Store

When it comes to car culture, the Japanese and Italians have distinct differences. While the Japanese prioritize engineering detail and precision, the Italians focus more on aesthetics and sound. This stark contrast makes it surprising to find a collection of European sports cars and exotica in Japan, a country known for its love of JDM cars.

Recently, YouTuber Dino DC visited Collezione, a car haven located on Tokyo's famous Kanpachi Dori road. Collezione boasts an impressive stock of Italian cars, with a few French cars thrown into the mix. The establishment has two showrooms, one indoor and one outdoor.

Dino DC first explored the outdoor showroom, where he was greeted by a Lancia Delta Integrale. This small hatchback gained fame in the '90s for its rally performances and is set to be revived as part of the Lancia brand's comeback. However, Collezione doesn't solely focus on vintage Italian vehicles.
