The event is on track to attract as many as 900 cars!
When Beaulieu’s mega Simply Japanese event rolls out on Sunday July 28th, two of Japan’s most loved sports cars will be honored. With the Mazda MX-5 celebrating 30-years on the road, and the Nissan GT-R celebrating 50 years of production, this event is a prime chance to celebrate - it will have special display areas for the cars within the show.
“The globally successful Mazda MX-5 has become the roadster of choice for millions since its 1989 launch. The iconic Nissan GT-R traces its history back even further to 1969, when it was unveiled as the ultimate performance version of the six-cylinder Nissan Skyline,” event coordinators offered. “Owners of both of these legendary models, from the earliest examples right up to the latest showroom versions, will be taking their places in the busy showground.”

Mighty 5s will be bringing along a selection of Mazda MX-5s, Del Sol UK will be showcasing the targa-top Honda CRX and Celica-Club will celebrate the many incarnations of Toyota’s sporty Celica, while Hampshire Honda Crew, the Toyota GT86, Subaru BRZ Drivers Club plus the SouthCoastJap and Nihon Kuruma Alliance enthusiasts’ groups will be out in force, as members each park their pride and joy on the club stands.”
Event goers will have the chance to vote for their own favorite Japanese vehicle at the show, for the car to win the People’s Choice Award and trophy.
