Another Tokyo Smart Sighting - Smart Car of America Forums : Smart Car Forum

Spotted another one in Shibuya, rolling past the loading dock of the theatre on Shoto-Dori today... Yellow/silver 450, left-hand-drive (kinda rare here).

Why do they only come around when I don't have a camera handy (especially the ForFour I spotted the week before last)?

I have a 450; just bring your camera to Chapala.

You're still in Japan? Cool

Wanted to go there...

Bit of a commute from Tokyo (that's in Japan, y'know), don't you think?

Oh; and it's LHD cars that are rare here, as people drive on the "different" side of the road in Japan.

Go for it! I think it'll be around for a while longer; no need to rush.

EDIT: Saw another 450 yesterday; yellow-on-black, didn't see if it was LHD or RHD. Driving up the Jingu-Mei near the Omote-Sando subway station, heading for Meiji-Jingu.

Another one! Silver/silver 450 Brabus, rolling by the loading dock on Shoto-Dori...

Today is our last day in Tokyo; the show moves to Nishinomiya tomorrow, spending the next week in the Hyogo Performing Arts Center, over between Osaka and Kobe. We'll see how many smarts live over there...

I doubt it. My car is ignoring Panda, too.
