Thumbs up Japanese Hearses - A bit over the top, don't you think? - 05-09-2009, 06:33 AM

I was just researching Hearses and discovered this is the standard type used in Japan.

Can anyone let us know what all the gold and intricate art work represents?

Personally, I think the entire thing looks out of place stuck on top of the black car, or then again, is their a special reason why..

I wonder if they have a full complete one piece design, let's say all in gold..


Cheers - Oz

I'd happily commit suicide right away if I knew I would be carried in such an AWESOME hearse !


Gimme a stick and I'll make a masterpiece out of it, go figure.

No.

In English it's called a 'Hearse'

Not sure what they call them in Japan?

One thing for sure, the Japanese model is certainly a beast and a half!
