    I was in Japan 2 weeks ago. The last time I went was 6 years ago and I wasn't into cars then. This time around I went crazy looking at the cars.
    If you ask me I'd say I'm not very much into tuning Japanese cars, but I love Toyota's and it was cool just to see cars we don't get in the US.
    I was in Nagasaki and there were alot of Toyota Crowns and Mark X's and I love those exec. saloons.
    I saw alot of cars I didn't get too take picutres of, most of these pictures are of stock cars because these are the only cars that I saw when I was able to take a picture.
    Please Enjoy.

    I know what you mean, but I was usually in a rush to take the pictures because we were on the move and some were also in parking stalls with cars on either side so I couldn't get full side views. And cars like the Nissan Fuga and Toyota Altezza, you know how an Infiniti M35 and Lexus IS300 looks from the side, so for hose I pretty much just wanted to get the badging and grille.
    Plus too I am NOT a photographer not even for fun, haha and the stupid camera's zoom didn't work. But I still hope you guys can enjoy it.

    This was a Sprinter Carib. This was the next gen BZ touring wagon, sitting in the Parking Lot at the hotel we were staying at. I was jealous when I saw it especially because it looked alot better person than pervious pictures I've seen on the internet.

    A Beautiful Toyota Crown Athelete. Full size luxury Saloon that must be expensive because it looked like most are driven by old people. Check out the curtains in the rear window.

    That first car I would totally rock if you lose the chrome protective trim, put some better looking wheels, and slam the hell out of it. And I've always liked how Subarus can have the big one piece side visors. Looks so much cleaner.
