7年間日本に住んでいて、車を買う必要は全然なかったと感じた。交通機関は世界一ですし、殆どのところには電車やバスで行ける。しかし、電車も面倒くさい面もある。例えば、コストコで買い物を沢山したときや、電車が混んでいてアーマーで電車乗ったら、アーマーが壊れるとか。。。この前日本武道館でイベントがあり、アーマーを分解してタクシーで乗った行った。帰るときはそのままアーマーを着てタクシーに乗っていたんですが、タクシーが捕まるまでは雨の中のトルーパーだった。そうゆうときに車があると便利だなーと。
しかし車を買うのは結構めんどうなことがいろいろとありますね。特に車保険選び。面倒くせぇ〜!
免許はイギリスの持っていたので、それを日本のものに切り替えるための面倒なプロセスなどを後日長い記事でアップします。

Its a Nissan! I heard that the safety ratings on Nissans weren't as good when compared to Toyota's designs =(.

Go burn some rubber Danny, Initial D Style!

I heard that you can't own a car in Japan if you have a place to park it. Is this true?

Second post woohoo.

Interesting car, and interesting color. But you should have bought a Honda brand car.
(ID #37583) Posted on 2007/01/02 01:23
You bought a buggy?  Oh wells, if it'll get you around who needs to complain.

Green?  One of my favorite colors.  In Japan?  My favorite places.  Where ever you're living in?  Sure, lets go with that.  Are gonna put Gundam designs on it?  You better...

I agree with GundamZZ. Toronto's transit system sucks. A car is a must. Especially when you are living in an isolated area where buses come every 50 mins. And not to mention that some drivers either arrive 10 mins late or 10 mins earlier than the scheduled time. Grrrr!!!

Some parts of Tokyo Drift may be real, but some moves have me raising my eyebrow a bit.

Anyways, congratulations on getting a car, Danny. I just hope you didn't have a hard time wrenching the parts off the sprues and all that.

Unless you really liked that Top Gear episode so much, don't mind turning a few heads in Japan or will rarely have to use the car.. :P

But if you're living in a very populated area in Japan, I suggest you get a Toyota Aygo, maybe the Honda Yaris or something else. From what I've read  from reviews, the Nissian Micra isn't all that great, good but npt great. Hope it helps.

Nice personal car. But I think that the new rear-engined Mitsubishi I minicar looks to be a better buy. The Micra has been in the market for a long time. It might not be long before it will be replaced. The best minicar to buy from Nissan is the cool and unconventional Nissan Cube.
