Find this strange...Honda Inspire
I know the Inspire and the TL are the same, but I find this Inspire picture odd. You have the Honda emblem, right hand drive, and....California plates??? The pic is from Honda Japan so why California plates? Okay, I'm bored.

Acura of America is in Tustin, CA..
wonder if that might be the "model" model for advertisements..
The strange thing about that plate is that Cali is going in order for the plate number it is using.. we are at the number 4 for the first digit for new plates this year.. so a 7 is kinda strange..

Honda/Acura are in Torrance, CA. They probably used a plate starting with 7 on purpose. Like how movies always use phone numbers starting with 555. They don't really exist.

The same way parts from japan are cool to us, stuff from the U.S. is cool and unusual to them even a licence plate. Especially from Cali. they eat that shit up.

saw an older aurora with german plates too, but it was without a frame (it was bent in the center so it folded around the point in the front).
it didnt' look half bad, but c'mon!
