Indeed

This was legit. Off the cuff coverage of a rare & unique moment in car culture. No fancy editing or narrated specs/ facts, just the pure sense of awe & adrenaline shared with the rest of around the world to appreciate.

I really love car culture when it’s handled like this. I like how Larry Chen brought out how respectful everyone was and when the police said to move to a more friendly location they did. In the US I doubt that would happen and we would do those weird burnout “shows” in a 4-way intersection on top of it. I just love how diverse the car cultures are in Japan. I mean this doesn’t even show the other huge meets that include itasha, bosozoku, or giant events dedicated to one specific car (for instance a GTR or something random like a Suzuki Cappucino).

I remember emailing Larry many years ago to let him know how much of a fan I was of his work with Speedhunters and he actually replied back! It was great to see him become a personality with the Hoonigan guys, then go solo and now his partnership with Hagerty. Larry’s talent and unbridled enthusiasm for car culture is second to none. Videos like this are one of the many reasons I insure my E30 through you. Thank you Hagerty for hiring top talent! Keep car culture alive and please keep sending Larry on more missions.

Yellow rx7 and purple-ish nsx nailed it

2:40 thats Kyza on the left, never knew dude was this big.

Loved seeing Albo’s S2K and Dustin’s R34 make a cameo 🙌

Absolutely love this video, I felt so much for Larry. Been following this guy since school and am so grateful for his taste and perspective because he was the first automotive journalist/photographer that covered the stuff I like, rather than what's new and hot rods. I'm from rural Maine so the taste is basically all trucks.

To see Larry Chen light up like that when he's witnessed car culture all over the world only shows how special Japanese car culture is to him and to so many of us. Loved this video.

The sound of the Ferrari at 11:00 is my absolute favorite all day any day. Just straight goosebumps anytime I hear that scream. I still have some of the import/street racer magazines from the late 90's early 2000's. A couple of them have articles and stories covering the Japanese underground car scene. Truly amazing. Glad it looks like it hasnt changed for decades. Mad respect.

From 11:00 - 11:11 it gave me goosebumps and literaly made me weak in the knees at the same time . What an amazing machine. L.E. I got to drive a F8 Spider , it's amazing.

Late comment but to witness this culture in Japan makes me really brought into tears genuinely!! Literally no words to describe this one but the only I could say right now is this is the most raw, diverse, genuine and connected car scene I've ever seen!! Just bunch of genuine car enthusiasts out there gathering occasionally and sharing this one same goal which is the love for our cars!!!! This really brought an inspiration to me!!! It makes my inner child awaken and fuels my flame of passion towards these machines even more!!! Thank you for sharing your true passion and connectivity with this scene and hopefully we could be able to preserve this and pass it to the future generations!!

Thank you for keeping car culture around , you guys are amazing Hagerty

Hagerty had been on FIRE lately. Mad respect for all the content.

12:30 : Mad Mike Whiddett just casually hanging out with Robbie Nishida, and checking out Toyko's lowrider scene 😄

This is one of the coolest videos I think I’ve ever seen. Tokyo Auto Salon is now on my bucket list.

I gotta say my man the way Japan is with the car culture is beautiful everyone is together with their own unique build and I can't do nothing but respect that to the fullest. I love it no burnouts, uncontrollable drift crashes, dumb high end revs, or no extra showing out like that car meet is the most peaceful meet I've ever seen. Dude I'm happy you took those photos because they look live and legit I love the way these cars look my goodness.

Amazing collab with Larry Chen and Hagerty. You guys have been killing it with the content! The energy and love for the culture radiates in this video. Need more of this!

This was epic, Larry. Thanks for bringing us along.

Holy sh*t. I was there at that meet - or at least the first part! Wish I could have met Larry Chen in person - the shots here just show how he's such a genius at photography!

In Japan those skylines are so common but those Diablo’s and murci’s were next level and to see them all “hacked up” was epic I love the passion they all have and they actually drive their cars even If it is a Lamborghini Diablo GTR !

Video clearly conveys "Pure Passion" without the use of words. Energy, photos, people, cars... It's just fantastic!

Y’all need to keep making videos with Larry and cammisa. Love when these guys do the videos thank you! So good!

What a cool scene and a great video. So much respect for Japanese car culture ❤

For someone who's been to a lot of big events and to still have such enthusiasm it's really cool to see and shows a genuine appreciation and love for cars.

I’m glad any time Larry gets to do anything. People cannot hire or pay him enough. He’s so excellent.

Seeing Larry just OD'ing on car culture makes me hyped, amazing energy.

it's been a depressing week at work... then along comes LC. I couldnt stop smiling through the whole Vlog....... & my wife just doesn't get it Thanks LC :)

This was epic to see meets like this again. The energy was felt through thr screen, from the pictures to the cars. Hagerty, you've got a formula no one else has now. Utilize it. 👍🏿

I’m convinced the Hagerty/Larry collabs are the greatest automotive culture videos of our time

11:06 was such a rad shot

Japan is super cool. Paradise for car lovers, the Japanese truly understand driving cars on twisty roads and have a real passion for cars. God bless the Japanese, some of the best most fun cars in the world come outta there, and they make the most fun to drive car on public roads that u can buy right now, the Miata.

Meanwhile in America, they have these “takeovers” reving straight pipe cars at 2am in residential areas waking up my baby up. Japan is an amazing place. My family lives there a month out of the year. I encourage many enthusiasts to visit. Great video Larry!

I freaking love seeing your excitement and enthusiasm Larry. I felt like that too and I’m watching this days into the future and hundreds of miles away

This whole series is so amazing. Keep it going Larry Chan and Hagerty.
