Japan's legendary car customisation brand Liberty Walk (LBWK) is set to open its first Southeast Asian flagship store in Malaysia
Founder Wataru Kato will travel to Malaysia to grace the grand opening event, which is scheduled to take place on 8 and 9 August.
The new retail outlet will be located at The Exchange TRX. Rather than a conventional merchandise store, the flagship is designed as an immersive, multi-faceted lifestyle destination.
The venue will integrate a premium apparel boutique, showcasing the brand's official, highly sought-after clothing lines and accessories, with an exclusive selection of scale models and rare collectables aimed directly at die-cast collectors.
Visitors can also expect a bespoke café, establishing the outlet as a vibrant social hub rather than a basic retail space.

Its aggressive, low-slung aesthetic treatments have dramatically transformed everything from iconic Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) legends like the Nissan GT-R and Toyota Supra to elite European supercars from Ferrari and Lamborghini.
