So I thought I’d solve that for once... Taken with a Canon 70-200mm 2.8L IS2!

It’s not exactly discreet, especially for Japan lol, but I love it! Took me a while to get used to it though... Never would have thought I’d own such a bi-color car before haha

Oh cool, I was curious if it was carb like the 12a I had. Injection is much more reliable.
That’s the best!

It does start everytime! I didn’t expect that when I bought it haha

My 12a did too. When it was cold choke it, when it was hot, pump it twice. If I did those it always started.
I’m still saving up for that AZ-1 btw.

Anytime man! But yeah prices for them aren’t looking good... With less than 5000 produced, prices are rising noticeably...

Haha, it would still hurt less than if you were to buy it already imported, trust me :)

Just trying to help out a fellow oppo. I might try and find one in Canada that I can just do the appropriate paperwork when the time comes and drive it home. I live VERY close to Toronto.

With the crappy CAD right now, it might be the cheapest solution :)

Very nice, I like. I shall do the same soon I hope. I’m trying to get those light covers but they only want to take Japanese banking options. The mail forwarding service might be able buy it and ship but my wife has to talk to them. I can’t believe they don’t do regular Visa on Yahoo Auctions!

Well I have about another year of saving to do before I can seriously start looking, so we will see how that goes I guess.

I don’t think I’ve seen the interior before. Wasn’t expecting burgundy. Nice!

Yeah I always forget. If the lense covers were on ebay they would go for more money for sure though. Hopefully my wife can talk to them. We clicked to buy and tried to use our Visa travel card but the Visa symbol must mean something else. So now we want ton use that service and I will probably have to do a bank transfer when I get a day off, I have until the 30th....

Not the original interior though... It comes from another sa22c... It was a stripped track/touge car most of its life, reconverted to a more daily drivable configuration. This interior was never offered with 12a turbos... It comes from a regular 12a SA22C.

Same stuff, it’s just that this particular color wasn’t offered on them when new :)
