#i dont think this has any particular significance

Huh, I’ve never noticed this before (I think). Akio’s car is a left-hand drive, which means it’s not just a fancy sportscar - it’s a European import fancy sportscar.

(I’m thinking European import because it’s a sportscar - if it was a US import it would be a massive 4WD. Which would be an equally potent symbol of over-the-top masculinity, to be fair!)
