VIP was always big in Japan. VIP style isn't big in the lower mainland since more people would rather have a fun and agile car rather than a boat with window curtains. Most VIP wheels are super heavy, so performance wise it's terrible. Aftermarket support for VIP is like non existent up here.
There's probably less than a dozen VIP styled sedans in the lower mainland. There's a VIP car club by the name of Team Empire.
I used to drive a GS that I ended up losing. I do see a blacked out LS400 around town, but that's about it.
