And that's the Fuji TV building, on Odaiba. :colbert:

And by "always", how "always" are we talking about? That parking lot's between the hotel and the Miraikan, part of the Diver City mall I think, and I've never seen anything noticeable there. If I knew when stuff was happening I could do a trip report!

yeah fuji tv that's what i meant. idk everytime ive been down there there always seems to be a bunch of random cool cars like skylines and even american muscle cars and stuff around there. i wouldn't say it was related to any sort of event or anything. Lots of cars running up and down to streets being loud and stuff too. theres lots of car stuff going on down there like the Toyota history garage and like some halfords-type car shop that seems pretty popular?

The Toyota History Garage is pretty awesome and my camera was out of battery at the time or there'd be photos here. It's on the 2nd floor of the VenusFort annex. They've got some sweet classic MGs, an Elan, Alfas, and even a Ferrari! (okay it's a Dino) Plus some other stuff. If I wasn't there last weekend I'd take another trip. Odaiba's a good hour from my place and 2 transfers so uuuuuuugh.

Tokyo car goon meet on Odaiba? There's a go-kart track underneath that Toyota museum now, too...

Considering the fact that all the parts probably came from a million different cars they had laying around the speed shop and someone got bored and nailed them together and takes em out drifting makes it more AI than most projects around here. I dream of having the resources and being able to do that. Ya it doesn't look like a showroom car but its an original idea and will be probably smashed into a wall at some point to be rebuilt again so who honestly gives a gently caress.

Dude since when has sticking a bmw front end on another car been an original idea?
I'd rather see cool pictures if it drifting around and smashing into a wall, instead of parking hard like some sadly misinformed show car.

If a ratty piece of poo poo is mechanically sound and used just for drifting, cool. But whoever did this went though the effort of poorly putting a BMW front end on a different car. They cared at least enough to do the work, they just did a bad job. Doing a bad job is never cool.

That's loving gorgeous, I hope it kickstarts sales though.. apparently the 1 of 1 program is not going over the way Chrysler had hoped. However Allpar is reporting that Chrysler is taking deliveries of a supercharged version of the V10 making 770hp.

Yes. I loving love those wheels too.
