Tokyo Auto Salon 2009 Part 3

Time to wrap up Tokyo Auto Salon with some randoms...

A B310 Nissan Sunny, I remember these on the road as a kid, but until recently I didnt know they were a popular racing car in Japan

An Aston Martin/Maserati influenced Nissan 350Z. With the R35 and 370Z, the old 350Z was a bit overlooked at this years show

A Mazda Biante van, shame vans have not really caught on outside of Japan

Its not Japan without Engrish

Nice parts on display, these are HKS Kansai parts. I could easily post thousands of part photos, its what Autosalon is all about

Under the bonnet of Power Enterprises twincharged R35, with 2 superchargers supplementing the turbos. This car won the modified car of the show award

The Calsonic Super GT R35

and a very pleasant surprise just outside my hotel in Yokohama after the last day, a Hakasuka Skyline GTR, not sure if it was genuine but it sounded great as it pulled away.

Thats it for this years Autosalon coverage, but more from Japan to come
