    Hey guys,

    Will be visiting Japan next week for 2 weeks and was wondering if anyone recommends any must see spots, especially car museums/districts? Will be in Tokyo, Kyoto, Hokkaido, and probably some other areas outside of Tokyo. I remember reading there is a huge Ferrari musuem (private-owner I think) somewhere?

    Any advice and/or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Arrwin,

    I think you are referring to the Matsuda Collection. Do some googling and you will find info on it. On my last business trip to Tokyo I was going to try a run to Gotembo (I think that's where it is) but ran short of time. If you go, you HAVE :) to share photos on your return. Good luck and safe travels.

    Hi Andy,

    Thanks for the info. It is the Matsuda collection I was thinking of, but unfortunately it sounds like he closed the museum:
