Travelling to Japan - Where to go, Tifosis?

Hello there friends,

Im coming to Japan by the end of the year with some friends who doesn´t care about the same than me. So, because of this, im aware to ask, where do you recommend me to go while im in Japan? I would love to see some nice collections, or to meet some Japanese Tifosi´s. Would love to go to Matsuda collection, is it available? Or to see the only 33 Stradale Double Headlight outside Arese, which if im not mistaken, resides in Japan. Where is this car?

Well.. plus this, every information that you can provide me about where to go related with cars, would be fantastic.

Thank you in advance and hope to meet some of you!

If you see any 80s Turbo Porsche let me know. ( especially slant nose ). Maybe i can pay for your trip with some commission checks "finder fees" Im good for it. No stranger to paying for sourcing air cooled Porsche!

 

What? I don´t get it.

 

What kind of Porsches ? What mode I mean

 

Im not looking for Porsches in Japan. Im wondering about the Abarth Museum, Matsuda Collection, and those kind of places.

Thank you.

 

Sorry mate , not to sure

 

I was lucky to have been in Japan in the late 1990s with some Japanese enthusiast friends. The Matsuda collection was at its peak then, with the Ferraris parked in two modern, purpose-built buildings, one each for the road and race cars. The Porsches were housed separately, with quite a collection, from split-window 356s to the Abarths. The collections have diminished substantially since, and the Porsche section shut down. There were other car museums, like the Old-timer Garage with historic Lotuses, and specialist restorers. You need to get a local to take you around.

 

Thank you very much for the information Andres! Hope to find someone who can tell me what when and where to go!

Nick.
