European Sports Car Collection Discovered in Japanese Store

When it comes to car culture, the Japanese and Italians have vastly different approaches. The Japanese prioritize engineering detail, quality, and precision, while the Italians focus on aesthetics and sound. It's not common to find a collection of European sports cars and exotica in Japan, especially among the enthusiasts of JDM cars. However, YouTuber Dino DC recently discovered a surprising treasure trove of European cars at Collezione, located on Tokyo's famous Kanpachi Dori road.

Collezione is known for its impressive selection of Italian cars, but it also houses some French vehicles. The showroom consists of two parts - an indoor and an outdoor section. Dino DC first explored the outdoor showroom, where he was greeted by a Lancia Delta Integrale. This small hatchback gained fame for its rally performances in the '90s and is set to make a comeback as part of the Lancia revival. However, Collezione doesn't limit itself to old Italian cars.
