Walking around Tokyo and I see this Type-R!

I ran after it to snap a pic.

In Akihabara.

Love NSX. Thing is, and maybe the JDM market thing, I recall that a NSX Type R had a raised carbon fiber spoiler? Still a cool site to see though.

They got that spoiler after the facelift.

I'm surprised none of the Type R fan bois are calling it out as fake like when they see non R civics with the badge lmao

Maybe I wasn't paying attention(and I wasn't really, my focus this trip really had nothing to do with cars), but the whole 12 days I was in Japan last month I saw only 1 tenth gen Civic and it was a Type R in front of the Odaiba Autobacs store...saw a decent amount of STIs and some Evos.

Most of the cars you see are still just boxes on wheels...I did see more interesting exotics at Tokyo and Osaka.

I was gonna say... It's an NA1 NSX-R that was seen out in the wild, verse the image which was posted is of an NA2.

Even the exhaust the tips are different between the two.

I saw the same car lol

Here were some others in the parking lot at A Pit

As OP stated, Akihabara is a good place to go carspotting. I was too slow with the camera but I was able to catch these two

I saw a 6th Gen Camaro and a C7 Stingray and a Chrysler 300 in the A Pit lot....it was...not what I was expecting...lol

Don't forget to check out the Honda Welcome Plaza.

They had the current CTR and NSX in the showroom when we went last year.

Agreed. I took it for my buddy who has an Evo X as a bit of a joke.

One of the many things I planned to do there but didn't find the time. One thing I noticed is that all the cool car related stuff is spread out all around Tokyo

That Evo would have been the cat’s pajamas back in 1999.

We compromised on the Honda Welcome Plaza since the Honda Collection Hall would have cost a full day by itself.
