And what is that parking lot in the middle of all those overpasses? I've seen it many many times, always full of cool cars.

I believe those 2 cars are toyota soarers. And that parking lot is a rest area by the bay bridge in Yokohama, those overpasses are actually the exit from the bridge. It spirals down to the parking lot.

Love the Mine's R34.

Gotta give credit to the Toyota Chaser. The paint/sticker work itself is amazing. Looks like it would be a really clean car w/o the stickers.

You're very lucky to make that trip. What was the occasion? And was it as blindingly expensive as I hear it is? Even with cars out of the picture, I would still love to see Tokyo. I mean, name the most important/coolest cities in the world right now. New York, London, Paris, Rome, Amsterdam, Tokyo.

2 down, 4 to go.

This is my 2nd trip to Japan actually, I was there 2 years ago as well. I have relatives in the Navy that live there so I went to visit them. My cousins showed me all the spots and cool car shops. The plane ticket was expensive(but worth it haha), food wasn't too expensive but everything else was. The toll roads there are insanely expensive!

4 down 2 to go for me

What's that cream colored car in the second pic like someone else ask? I don't think it's a Soarer, I looked up the older Soarer models and none of them look like that. Also looks like an Skyline or a streched out Celica from the 70's. Whatever it is, fender mirrors are mighty hot

Did I see street drifting? Like almost everynight! Especially on the weekends, theyr'e out there all night drifting. Its amazing how good lots of those guys are. I got a lot of street drifting on vid too.

Some shops to look out for are Autobacs(you all know that), Upgarage, Yellowhat, Showup, Weld...theres a lot of others but I don't remember the names right now.

I think it might be a celica, I know for sure the white car on the left is a soarer. I just assumed the cream one was an older version.

In between drifting or when the cops break it up all the drifters hang out at a mini mart for a while then go out and start drifting again. Here's one of the spots




You guys that went to D1 remember this AE86?
