Leaving tomorrow morning to Tokyo, hanging out with friends tomorrow evening, sleeping in a hotel near Makuhari Mess and friday is the big day! I have 11 hours to cover 450 booths and 850+ cars lol

I’d like to see what Tom’s is up to this year with the S-FR. Also, ALL THE ND MX-5 MIATAS.

Do they have access to S-FR already? If not I don’t think they’ll be showing a s-fr this year

I don’t think I saw Mitsuoka on the list which is a pity. But if they are there...

Well, they don’t really appeal to the custom/tuning car community so it’s not really something for them... I don’t even recall seing them at the Tokyo Motorshow though...

I thought at first it was the Tokyo Motor Show and was wondering why it was so soon!

There’s a technical college which always presents something zany/wacky/weird, but I can’t find their name on the list (partly because I can’t read Kanji).

I’d like to know more about the following companies based only on their names:

ARMY GIRL

CAR MODIFY WONDER

LEG MOTOR SPORT

LOBSTER TOOLS

TOTAL BODYSHOP EFFORT

MADMAX

BRIDGE!

FEEL

XANADU

BALLY HOO

DUCKS GARDEN

BLOW

GORDON

Heart Up World KOKORO

TWO SYSTEM

Have Fun!

Dunno, but I imagine if Toyota’s smart enough, they’ll give aftermarket companies early prototypes to speed up their R&D for mods. Like how Mazda gave Garage Vary NA Miatas at least a year before going on sale, evidenced by this ‘88 Type II hood .

Apparently Fuji Speedway has brought some vintage racing cars. Pictures of them would be appreciated.

Also, whatever car that red one in the right bottom corner is. Something from Dream Factory Blow perhaps?

Got that covered already :)

I wait for Kat to finish her coverage not to over-step what she’s planned on doing. I don’t make a living on this, she does so... :)

They brought an old Can-am and a Prince R380. Mr Kato also lended his Alpine A210 to Dunlop.

EDIT: just to be clear I did shot pics of Fuji Speedway’s booth... I totally skipped on Minivans unless they were outrageous though, sorry. Just way to much to go through in just 11 hours.
