All manner of gaudily painted anime-character emblazoned vehicles were exhibited at the recent Moehaku 2010 event, 300 in total, with everything from cars (“itasha”) to bicycles (“itachari”), motorcycles (“itatansha”) and even a bus (“itabus”) on display.
For those looking for a cheap second-hand alternative:
The bicycles and motorbikes follow in a separate article.
However spectacular the cars, few could help but notice the sexy cosplay companions “accompanying” them were competing for the attention of event-goers and quite possibly winning hard; see more of them in the relevant gallery.

Driving and fap at the same time....i like that.
I like the front picture of the Strike Witches car

Lycky Star is still so popular, we need a 2nd season!
I saw I of them in Tokyo Autosalon this year.
awsome decal
That S2000 would look much better without that God-awful body kit.
The Canaan Car is the best.....
it looks Badass and isnt one of that
Ugly Moe-shit Cars xD
I want an AZ1 :(
~ I personally liked the 朝比奈 みくる, Asahina Mikuru mobile... the (image) plate was a - VERY - nice touch to the vehicle..
WIN!
So much, ME WANT
35 shows true dedication, painting the underside of the bonnet.
I love the K-ON van/car. :D
I like the Haruhi Skyline. The SW20 has pretty neat intercooler setup. Im surprised to see an itasha done in "yankee" style (oil cooler outside of car, huge exhaust tip sticking out the back). J's Racing wasnt bad either. For those that dont know, that is not paint, it is vinyl. Days are spent cutting the designs out and putting them on the cars. If you plan on doing this to your car, dont do it unless you drive a Japanese car like an S13, S14, 86, FD, ect fitted with the finest JDM parts.
I'm surprised there was a CANAAN itasha. I thought I was the only one that liked that show.
poor cars
Thanks, I learned of a circle from those pics. ^^
Nothing new, American's tend to go overboard with bumper stickers.

I guess thats one way to destroy Porsche's image of being a sportscar coz thats just wrong!
The Mikan one was great!
Wow... this is why I don't go to these events, I might have a fangasm and pass out (Those cars are BEAUTIFUL!!)
I want steal 1 of those car
Its only anime art paint and couple of stickers, still its cool I like it but It would be more interesting if it could change the car completely like the PIKACHU CAR
What kind of idiot could ruin a nice car like that? god! Grow up!
gah! Saki toyota car. it burns on my eyes.
its really good. but why Toyota?
oh well. its good anyway.
Do Want!!!!!
Lol, Yokomobile.
Honda S2000 and the Nissan Skyline where the best.
Some good tuning with awesome visual decoration!
I really liked the S2000 front bumper replacement kit.
You seriously like the body kit?
It makes a fine sports car look like a goddamn rice bucket.
@Kortaku
RICER ALERT!!!!
I would love to take a baseball bat and go to town on the fucking K-ON car.
really fear the otakus will spend all their savings, their getting as hardcore as ever these days
The best cars has to be the Porsche, AZ1, and the Soarer. Maybe some more...
lol the soarer is a piece of shit. you can buy in the US too, with a different name.
993 = win
I loled @ 65
These are amazing~
Ahh....they hurt....mine eyes....from the pain ....of the vehicles....
... i want one of these... problem is driving it around would be difficult even more so when it's to a business meeting x.x
i still want one... one day...
Yeah! I'd like to make one too - Not with my outdated A-Class, but maybe my next one - whatever it wil be xD
"Difficult.." - Yeah, but only if you drive the precure one (kinda got infected by it..)^^°
But if I make one of my beloved Miku-chama, evrything should be fine. ô.ôv
More like; you wouldn't want to drive it around fearing you might end up like this guy.
I was hoping to see some Unlimited Car Works
Jealous that they must get a ton of ladies in that?
I mean shit ladies go crazy for stickers and shit right? RIGHT?!
MIKURU BEAM~!;
The power to clear traffic xD
Ahhhh.... the art~
They see me rollin'...
they hatin'
Tsuruya's car seems to be the best among all of them. At least on quality.
Agreed, either Tsuruya's or the Miko one. And the Lucky Star car is a close third imo.
Manabi Straight pain car do... Want is not the right word...
Manabi Straight pain car do appreciate
Nanoha is flashing her pantsu, just in case anyone missed that.
Cheers for the second hand in joke Artefact :>
I can't believe someone ruined a classic Skyline and a Porsche....
If you're gonna ruin a car, ruin a generic ecobox fer cryin' out loud not a classic sports car!
thank god the face of the cosplayers are not shown.
Would love to do something like this with my SW20, but here in the UK is pretty much impossible to get decals and designs like this... :(
Its funny, because now that they probably paid a hefty penny for the paint jobs, for a fraction of the price they could've took a hottie out on a date. And in Japan, hotties don't like otaku and those cars will make you otaku no ass central.
That Haruhi Hakouska is so much WIN.
I just think these are so cool. I would totally reveal my power level to the world, driving around in an ita.
what I want to know is who makes these? I'm sure most of them are animation studio projects or the product of intensive sponsorship, but who drives this home in the end?... someone must, as kagamiku got herself killed out on the ole dusty trail ;_;
Also, how do you wash one of these? It hurts my soul to think of the possibility of damaging anyone's precious waifu-engraved auto.
That Eila-Sanya car is made of pure Win..
Too bad Eila's middle name contains a typo. It should be "Ilmatar" not "Iimatar". Otherwise it's surely nice. I hope nobody told the owner.
Yo, bro.
That was the first thing caught my eye.
pretty much the only good one in there.
Most of them are too trashy.
fap fap fap...
As much as I appreciate the artistry, I wouldn't be caught dead riding one of those.
Except if I was charred to death making me unidentifiable or I'm on kick ass acid trip!
Although Last Exile one looks awesome! So that makes it another exception.
I love car shows. Wanna go to one of these someday.
I hate car shows. But I still wanna go to one of these someday.
