Random question - how long have you been in Japan? Is it common for people to purchase vehicles, houses, etc while stationed overseas? Is it permanent for you or do you have plans to relocate back to the states? Sorry for sounding like a complete noob, I've just always wondered.
I've been here since the middle of 2011. It is not permanent, I'm supposed to leave June of next year, but I have the option to extend my stay here pending approval from my commander. People have been known to stay here nearly 6 years, but its never permanent and we all have to move eventually.

Tell me about it. It sucks, but I don't feel so bad, they share a lot of the same ideals in terms of design and driving. I just like being to hop in and drive. I love FD's, but I think I might have a slight case of vehicular ADD, so I'm having fun with the new vehicle so far.

Might've been the previous owner, I haven't been up there since I bought it. Hoping to get out to some RCCA events here pretty soon. The track wheel RPF1's came in the mail yesterday!
