Cameo French license plates

Could someone explain me why I see so many cars in Japan with French or German license plates under the official Japanese plates?

why the french license plates?

I might understand that car maniacs who import the cars from Europe might keep the plates for style, but this is a Mazda Premacy with the wheel on the right!

    Il faut dire qu’au Japon ils sont très “french touch”…
    Mais là c’est plutôt ugly touch ! :)

    Peut-être d’anciens expatriés qui ont la nostalgie de leur période européenne…
