I actually just moved to Tokyo myself to study. I've already seen the New GT-R, and that exact same ulgy Cayenne in Mita. not to Mention a 612, a Maybach 62, an R33 a Gallardo, and the list goes on. Oh, and a late 60's Olds 442, which looks REALLY cool here. I fancied myself as pretty familiar with the motor industry, but there are counltess box-type cars (some of them quite amusing), and a some Japanese luxury cars that are total strangers to me. Even a couple of badges - like that Crown badge that makes the taxi's and another that just looks like a check. My conclusion: they are holding out us.

Everytime I see pictures of houses, streets and cars in Japan i think, I'd either love or hate to live there, but definately not anything in between.

(Cool Supra, i had to say it)

I was at Kabuki-cho one night quite a few years back, and there were lots of nice cars: Lambo's, Ferrari's, Roll Royces, and quite a few big Merc S Class. Someone told me that the rich guys go look for hot prostitutes at night, because there are those private men's clubs that are for Japanese only. I'm not too sure about that though.

I thought I remembered seeing it on one of those shows.

What I don't get is why they insist on trying to sell these "K" cars overseas. They're built to fit specific restrictions for light vehicles in Japan, they make sense here, but no-one really wants to buy a car with a 660cc power limited engine unless they have to.

I'm Australian, but thanks. I've been here so long I'm forgetting how to speak English, seriously.

Yeah, its a pay parking space, so you park there and the thing flips up, then when you pay it flips down again so you can leave.

Yeah, at first I loved it, then I hated it, now it swings from one to the other. Definitely miss the good weather, and fresh air and the ability to take advantage of it, like going to the beach. Nature.

You in University? I like the Nissan Cedric, dont know if its sold OS under a different name. And one fo the older Crown Majestas, when modified a little in VIP style, looks sweet, a real gangster car.

Heres a pro unicycle. Notice the three springs inside the wheel, its like a suspended hub. And it has a disc brake.





This is a fake beach near Heiwajima. You cant swim here, its surrounded by factories. I did see a homeless guy walking around, fully clothed up to his waist though.

Its hard to be environmentally aware and conscientious when you walk past a store that has a completely open facade 12 hours a day and you can feel the cold air rushing out from the air cons in summer and the warm air from the heaters in winter. At Shinagawa station there are big airconditioning units that run during summer, pumping cold air onto the outdoor platforms. I kinda like that, mind you.

Lots of strange things go on in Kabukicho. There are hostess clubs, host clubs, brothels, shabu-shabu restaurants where the waitresses dont wear panties- but do wear miniskirts, porno movie places where you can get a hand-job (or so Ive heard), "Soap Land" chains (well, they're everywhere) where you can get washed really thoroughly by a young naked nymph (who's probably been either sold into sexual slavery or coerced into it by the Yakuza) and pretty much anything else you can imagine. If you're going to see Yakuza, that's where you'll most likely see them, but just pretend you don't see them if you know what I mean.

do you see the Yakuza driving around in big badass Mercs, or is that a lame stereotype?
