Just a few pics from my trip. I haven't sorted through all the files yet, I'll probably do that this week-end.
Picked up this awesome Macross (Robotech) figure in Akihabara.

I saw a TON of fixed up luxury cars. Here's a Brabused-out SL.

Ran across this on the way back from the Nismo factory. Apparently the people there see nothing wrong with this ride.

Also on the way back... I guess you're not allowed to feed birds cat food over in Japan.

Here's the toilet in our hotel room. Pretty hi-tech!

That's all for now. I'll post the other pics once I have them all sorted out.

So, did you get the rear spoiler, since you went back to NISMO after riding that panda. You know you rode that panda on the way back to the hotel too!!

Thanks guys.
As for souvenirs, I tried, but they wouldn't let me bring back any JDM girls!
Tony, nah, I had to pass on the spoiler. Didn't really buy much in terms of car stuff.
As for the panda, don't try to lie, you know you wish they had those here!

Thanks for the preview... cant wait for the rest!
My wife's from Tokyo... My first driving experience in Tokyo was to a country club in Saitama... My father-in-law hands me the keys to his M3 and asked me to drive. (his other car is a GT-R which he never let me drive)
So, there I was in the fast lane cruising at around 140 kilo' thinking man this is cool then I noticed cars coming fast behind flashing their highbeams - I was like what the F@k!?!? Apparently if you're a slow a_ss in the fast lane they high beam your a_ss and either pass you or keep flashing until you get out of their way. I was thinking welcome to Tokyo, try not to **** off a yakuza or wreck your father-in-laws car.
