JASSIC is a term coined by Brenda Ayala and Diasiss in June of 2006. The moderators of
http://WWW.JASSICS.COM have originated this term to describe a Japanese classic car and culture. It is combined from two words - Japanese and classic.A JASSIC can refer to many cars considered Japanese and classic, but the word classic as used with the term JASSIC doesn’t necessarily mean a Japanese car 25 years or older. It is used with this definition of classic below.
“Classic”
Belonging to the highest rank or class;
Serving as the established model or standard-a classic.
Having lasting significance or worth; enduring.
ORIGIN
http://WWW.JASSICS.COM moderator DIASISS known for being controversial, innovative, and ambitious, was becoming frustrated with most car cultures not recognizing Japanese cars and their controversial urban culture. In an attempt to combat popular culture and solve this problem he thought it would be wise to “invent” a coined term to which he is quoted saying “if you can know a car type and culture by simply saying American Muscle or Tuner…why not a term for the “ghetto and urban” old-school Japanese cars and culture!!!” Brenda Ayala suggested, “why not call them JASSICS???” which caught on very quickly and was very well received once used.The term was also created to make a statement to the car world that Japan CAN make a classic car and can be recognized as a force and rival for American and European classic cars to reckon with.. The terms JASSIC and JASSCAR (Japanese classic car) have caught on very quickly since
STYLE
Not to be confused with Tuners, JASSIC culture has a very new approach to the car world. JASSIC cars can be defined as, but not limited to…80s 70s and early 90s Toyota's, Nissan's, Mitsubishi's, Acura's, Infiniti's, Lexus, and Mazda's with “style” and aggressive design that look like they were designed to make a statement of pride to the Japanese car world and world alike. This is being done without excessive and overdone commercial friendly customizing. Some notable Jassics include:
Mitsubishi Starion's/Chrysler Conquest TSI's
MK1,MK2 and MK3 Supra's
Early model Nissan Maxima's
Classic Nissan Z cars
Classic Mazda Rx7's
