The things and shops that I randomly run into while out and about in Osaka still surprises me. This one takes the cake. I’m just walking along the city street toward the train station on my way home from Osaka, and lo and behold! A Lamborghini dealer!

Beautiful Gallardo! Since coming to Japan last year, I think I have seen way more Lamborghini, Ferrari, Rolls Royce, and Bentley on the road than the whole time I have been living in the US. This dealership was already closed when I walked by hence the darkness. I couldn’t see a price tag anywhere but this is one of those things that if you have to ask the price, then you probably couldn’t afford it ^^;.

Sweeeet…

 

This was a week after New Years but the holiday lights are still up so snapped a few shots :)

Just when I thought I saw everything, I continued on my way and ran into a McLaren dealer just a couple of blocks away from the Lamborghini dealer! This is the company responsible for the legendary McLaren F1.

First time seeing an F1 car in person. It doesn’t look the least bit comfortable for the driver at all…

Seeing expensive cars running around and dealerships like McLaren here makes me wonder… exactly just how affluent are some of the people here in Osaka?

The car needs a better name than MP4-12C. It just doesn’t… ring well. This dealership was still open at the time but I didn’t dare to enter ^^;. Being a poor college student, I feel like I don’t even have the right to walk inside and it would’ve been totally embarrassing when the receptionist greets (or most likely ignore) me then laugh me out door XD

It sure would be nice to be able to drive one of these 6-figure cars somehow but I think I’m content with just being able to see these cars in person; I’ve never desired to own of these cars. For something this small to cost as much as a house, it must be one hell of a drive!
