@ Super8: That's pretty cool, I guess to some Japanese people, it may be mind blowing to see an American license plate on a Japanese car, but we love them over here, Nissan Z, Toyota Celica, Honda S2000, Honda Prelude, Honda Civic SI/Type R, NSX, Toyota MR2, Subaru Impreza WRX/WRX STI, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Mazda MX5 Miata, Mazda RX7, Mazda RX8. Someone at work drives a Subaru Imprexa WRX. When it comes to hot Japanese cars, I mostly see Mitsubishi Eclipses. Toyota Celicas, and Mazda MX5 Miatas around where I live.

The 383 Magnum is a good engine, 335 horsepower and very durable. I believe my dad had a 383 in his '71 Charger, but the engine was detuned to 300 horsepower for 1971. It's kind of crazy to see a Japanese license plate on an American muscle car. Is it true that in Japan the license plate you get on your car is the license plate that stays on the car its whole life no matter how many times the car changes hands from owner to owner and registration doesn't need to be renewed?

@ Super8: 440 Magnum, 375 horsepower if I'm correct.
