car shopping in japan...(why would I make a thread like this without pic's?)
 
here are some pics I took today. i was in heaven. any turbo/import person would.

start the day off...nice beautiful day. this is out of my motel window. this is pretty much the view from the top of the hill.

we went to probably 10 different places, i was in the market for pretty much anything RWD/turbo. i really wanted a tureno, but the first ones we came to they wanted like $6,000 for and it was beat pretty hard. the guy told us, they were getting hard to find making it worth alot of $$ on the island. it was bacially a full out race car. would have been fun, but its our first car, and it needs to be somewhat practical. :-\

anyways...here are the pictures. these were all pretty much taken at the same dealership. not all of the dealerships are like this, so i just took pics of this one.

after going through all of the cars, i ended up liking this one the best. an evo 3. I could pick this up for about $5500- it was sexy as hell. i know I went out looking for a RWD something, but this is the sexiest IMO. I love evo's. IM going to the bank monday. ;)

im suspossed to take a look at a 180sx tommorow. it has a bunch of work done to it, and the guy is asking $2,000 for it, but it needs a JCI (inspection) in Sept, which could cost anywhere from $300-$3,000 so im gonna lowball him and see where it goes. no pics yet.

here are a few more pics.
this is down at the bottom of the hill of the top pic.

this ferris wheel is a big deal on the island. at the top, you can see pretty much the entire southern south east side of the island, its pretty cool.

The cars look good. The Toyoto Tureno is a nice car. Some comes supercharged and I've seen one in Jamaica that was turbo charged. The Nissan Pulsar (200HP from the factory) is also a nice car. Nissan also make a Sunny (aka Sentra in America) that is AWD, twin cam 16 valves.

Good luck on your car hunting.
