Cruising in Taipei
I thought I'd show a small clip of a nice veilside RX7 I think it was the same car the Han was driving in Tokyo Drift.

Yep my wife and kids wasn't home so I was on holiday

and I was trying out my new Sony Vivaz cell phone

I didn't spot any AMGs when I was there over Thanksgiving. Spotted a Lambo on the streets and at the Westin (I said Hyatt in another thread which is incorrect) where we were staying on Nanjiang Rd.

LOL, "Toyko Drift in Taiwan."

You have to live in xing yi area. That's where all the rich people live. Taipei 101, xing guang, ny plaza....all there.

+1

Though I did have to watch for the e39 520is and the odd w210 e200s on the second highway when I used to live there years ago.

Neither were worse than the speed cameras hidden under burlap bags on highway 8 though. That one took me three tickets before I found out where they hid it.

As for turns, I miss the ability to turn anywhere anytime too.

But in Taiwan (or at least taipei) you need to lookout for all the scooters around to protect your car lol
