Same wing and with an "extra badge" under the "Z" logo so, it could be yes... But we are in Japan... not a lot of these types of cars stay stock very long lol. It could very well have just been modified...

Look to the left of the Toyota. It's hiding between the buildings.

Not so sure. A Cube doesn't have such a flat windscreen and I think they're bigger as well.

Every time someone posts a link, it never takes me to street view. It takes me to map view. Is it just me? What am I doing wrong?
