JDM standards for Japanese Domestic Market, these type of cars are made in japan and the main reason JDM car more popular in most countries is because japan cars are build with impressive technology but not like muscle cars these cars can be modified with after market parts without damaging the car, on the other hand it's very hard to modify a muscle car because of the company warranty issues and it's mostly likely to give errors from the ecu if stock engine setup is changed, so most muscle car owners tend to keep the car stock while JDM owners change their setup.Another big reason JDM is popular in most countries are because maintain cost and spare parts cost is low compared to muscle cars and even a owner with a average salary can turn a Japanese car into a race car.
popular JDM cars in the world : Mazda rx7 (rotary engine 232hp) , Toyota Supra (2JZ engine 280hp), Mitsubishi Evolution ( 291hp engine )
Which one suits you ?
if you are looking for a car show off and street race but don't have much technical knowledge, then muscle cars are perfectly fine because when the car is manufactured the engine is fine tuned by the company and you don't need to worry about it, but what you need to worry about is the price, muscles are expensive compared to Japanese cars.
if you're a real petrol head and needs to make a perfect car for you racing activities, highly recommend JDM cars, you can buy a cheap one tailor it for you requirements for a reasonable price and also you can gain some additional respect from car culture if you have a hot ride
