on the streets of Tokyo

[PureDeXteritY]

After posting a few pics of a Silvia I saw (my fav) I had a couple requests to post pics of a few more cars I saw while I was in tokyo.

needless to say, I saw a bunch of sweet ass rides during my time living in Japan, attending University of Tokyo. here's a few of them...


Accord Type R, saw this on my way to school

I saw this driving down the street, and when it parked and went into the store I had to get a picture of it.

The Next few pictures were taken In Hong Kong where I visited for a few weeks before I came back to calgary.

The blue Evo VII belongs to my older cousin, and the white Integra (rsx) Type R belongs to my younger cousin. Let me say something about the Evo, DAMN IT'S FAST:eek:

actually you're right.
when you park in that spot the little thing on the bottom pops up and starts the timer. when you leave you go to the main parking meter and press for instance Parking spot A11 and pay for whatever time you were parked there for. then the thing comes down and you can leave, pretty sweet huh

here's the kicker, when I was there I realized that Parking in Tokyo, is Cheaper than here in Calgary
100 Yen an hour...that's about 1.25 an hour

You sure about that?? In downtown, its more like $2-3/hr at a meter on the weekdays.

Your cousins and Uncle must be loaded. Cars in HK are brutally expensive, no??

[PureDeXteritY]

ya that's what I mean.
parking in calgary=2-3/hr
parking in Tokyo= 1.25/hr


heh, ya they're doing pretty good.
I should put some pics up of their houses
