Question Tokyo - Japan

Any owners around Tokyo? Just got my Lightening Yellow Type-S with aero parts. Most of the board seems to be people in Singapore (nothing against that . What's up in Tokyo?

Anyone had problems with their in-dash navi hanging on them? I'm going to be asking my dealer about that on the first service.

I actually got a good deal on a demo car that my dealer had. Its a year old, 2003 model with 4000kms so I got it within 2 weeks of paying. Reason it took so long is that you have to register the car and prove you have a parking space for it before you can take ownership over here. I think ordering a new one, the dealer said there would be a month or so waiting time. Not definate on that though.

I've yet to see another yellow on the roads. It really looks great, turns heads and is definitely IMHO worth the wait

Saw 2 8s out tonight. Parked beside one in Odaiba and discovered a black one on the same block as I live on the way home. Pretty cool.
