Camaro Fanboy:

Congrats on the Gen6!
I lived in Tokyo once, and my rich financial firm employer sent my US spec 1999 BMW M3 E36 convertible over for me and paid the $500/month for parking it in Tokyo (as well as for my apartment - that was amazing).
Since BMW sold the euro-spec M3 in Japan (much cooler than my US-spec), it was not a surprise to see one.
However, my steering wheel was on the other side - Japan is right hand drive, US is left hand drive.
This made for fun when going thru a toll booth - it was a LOOONG REAAACH.
It might have felt really funny too for my passengers - they were sitting on the "dangerous side".
You must be having some adjustment to left hand drive coming from Britannia.
If you bring your Camaro back to England, driving B-roads will be very exciting!
Hope you enjoy your drive!
