Japan 2005 - Pictures! (dial up beware!)

Sorry for the delay. But better late than never.

Here's the link to my long post detailing the trip.

Here's the lowdown on the pictures. A few shots of the fish market. A couple of the Imperial Palace. The JR Ebisu station and the ticket machines. Asakusa Temple and marketplace. Kamakura marketplace. Kitakamakura temples. And a shot of the Samurai Garden.

More to come.

Here are some shots of the cars we came across.

The new Miata had some kind of promo show at the hotel. It looks good!

And a few more, most from the outside the hotel.

The S65 AMG was sweet, as was the white Magnum with huge chrome rims (20s to 22s) and pitch black glass all around. The shot from inside the hotel doesn't do it justice.

Nice pics. As impressive as a M-B S65, a CLS, or even a good ol' X5 is, I can't help but think how much more impressive it is in a country where they probably cost far more than over here in NA.

I glanced at the BMW of Japan website and somehow managed to pick out the price among the question marks. I converted it, and a 4.4i starts at 9,250,000 Yen.... or $83,969!

Great pics, RF!

Our X5s are probably the cheapest in the world. Remember that we have it manufactured right here. In many countries, tariffs add a lot to the price.
