GOING TO JAPAN...any car events, shops i should check out

yea im headed to tokyo on the 24th and im gonna be tehre a few weeks...last year i went i happened to stumble upon a sick ass luxury car show

i was wondering if there was any events going down in japan soon, specifically the tokyo area but anythings ears....any races, car shows, or any car shops i should visit?? maybe a spot i can pick up some inspire badges or nice shiftknobs??

my bro just got back and he said he saw an average of 3 ferraris and bentleys a day....more luxury sedans like cimas, celsiors, crown sports, than civics.....i always remember seeing the sickest cars in japan, they know how to do it....im for sure gonna put a picture thread when i get back

ENJOY YOUR TRIP!!!

If you can, bring me back a Skyline GT-R 33 A Spec.
In Midnight Purple.

I am sure you will have no problem getting it by customs
in SFO.

On the corner of 49th Street and 3rd, go up to a Puerto Rican fellow named Martinez, shouldn't be too hard to spot, ask him for directions to El Casa Diablo, and he will HOOK YOU UP with the best shit you've ever had in your life!


Wait.................


Sorry I don't know of any places, but have a good time

Welcome to Tokyo!! As well as Japan!! Your friend is right..if you head into say...Ginza, Marunouchi, Aoyoma, Azabu, Roppongi...you will definitely see at least 3 Ferraris, Lambos, Aston Martins, or w/e! I've seen so many Mercedes and BMWs in my neighborhood that I dont enjoy looking at them anymore! Instead, I look at Alfa Romeos and Maseratis....they are awesome!! BTW, enjoy your stay at Tokyo.
