Ok, ok, I know you are wondering what hell is with the Japanese “Ear Cars” (“mimi” means ‘ear’ in Japanese) and what these photos mean, right?

The 42nd Tokyo Motor Show 2011 is running a promotion with the theme: “What kind of car will change the world?”

The Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association in cooperation with the FM radio broadcasters TOKYO FM and J-WAVE have created these car equipped with huge fiberglass ears as part of their publicity campaign for the 42nd Tokyo Motor Show 2011.
These Mimi-Cars will “listen” with their IC recorder-embedded, sculpted ears (140 cm x 210 cm) to the public’s opinions…Ri-i-ight.

  1. I looove the LaLa Land you’re living in, but get real. You think young Bbbajans would give up the bling, the wuk up, the ghettoblasters sorry, iPods now the drugs, the brandname clothes, the every-night-all-night fetes to help Africans? Don’t make me laugh and make use the term “PeaceCorpse”! Takes me back to the days when the cadavers were imported into Barbados from Grenadians.
