In this video, Mr. Kazushige Sakamoto of SS-Active brings two cars built at Garage Active to display at AutoFashion Festival Japan. AutoFashion Festival is a gathering of car enthusiasts that started in the United States, but now has expanded to Japan as well. This year it was held directly in front of the Tower of the Sun in Osaka, a famous landmark that was originally built for the World Fair in 1970.
Sakamoto-san brought two cars on his truck via ferry for this show. The first is the well known Carbon-R that was displayed at SEMA 2022, and Tokyo AutoSalon in 2023. In this video, the car is displayed for the first time at an event open to the general public, as opposed to just people within the automotive industry.
In addition to the Midnight Purple III Carbon-R, Mr. Sakamoto brought the recently completed, 630BHP Custom Street Car with a full SS-Active widebody, brand new HKS 2.8 Liter Engine, reinforced frame, integrated roll cage, leather and alcantara interior, new carpet, Recaro RMS Dry Carbon Seats, Leather Active Rear Seat Delete kit, and much more. Mr. Sakamoto discusses the build, and at the end of the video, the customer comes to drive the car home.
