Nipponville skyline: A couple of lucky guys from Autoblog got to visit one of the holiest temples of Japanese iron—Nissan’s storage facility at Zama, Japan. Don’t read storage to mean old tax returns and camping equipment. This is more like a parking-garage-turned-museum, with every major Nissan going back to the 1920s, to weird little trucks and, of course, a sample of every Skyline GTR since the series’ inception. Plus, ogle the whole line-up of Nissan rally and touring cars, not to mention giant Cedric limos from the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. You’ll wish this was your garage (or at least a PS3 game) at www.autoblog.com/gallery/nissans-zama-storage-facility/.
Look sharp: High Snobiety isn’t just another blog about streetwear, it’s an absolutely obsessive-compulsive blog about streetwear, centred in the nexus of New York, Tokyo and eBay. But it’s not just a what’s-new shopping guide. You’ll also find very readable columns about fashion, art and toys that prove that even snobs can keep things unpretentious at www.highsnobiety.com.
