My favorite Tokyo Auto Salon 2022 cars
Tokyo Auto Salon 2022 was a blast. Jaw-dropping cars and cutting-edge concepts filled the venue, Makuhari Messe. The only thing missing was the hot models from previous years. Let’s dive into this incredible event and relive this exciting car show! Here are my top 10 (not in any particular order). I hope it meets your approval:
1. Honda Civic Type R: This car had an amazing paint job. It was black and had Rs in red and cars in white all over it. The effect made it look like scribble at a cursory glance. Visually, it was the best-looking car at the show.
2. Ferrari Monza SP2: What can I say? It’s a Ferrari. However, this one looks slightly different from what the company usually produces. It has the look of a classic roadster from the 1920s or 30s. With a powerful V12 engine and a beautiful interior, buyers can’t be far away.
3. Bedford campervan: There’s nothing more to be said. How could this one not be on a top 10 list?
4. Toyota Zent Cerumo GR Supra: This car looked the part in its red and white color scheme. And it brought back some memories from my youth.
5. Anija Lamborghini: The color scheme for this car was inspired. Silver, blue, and speed. It had style.
6. Toyota GR GT3 Concept Car: This one looked dangerous. The vehicle seemed so sleek it had an air of menace to it. Whoever drives it is undoubtedly in for some thrills.
7. Datsun 240Z: My father had a 280ZX when I was in high school. It was a beautiful car to drive. I didn’t see one of those at Tokyo Auto Salon 2022, but I saw this. That was reason enough to include it in this list.
8. Subaru BRZ: If I had the money, I’d buy this car. Good enough to drive on the road and do well on the track.
9. Toyota Orc Rookie Corolla H2 Concept Car: This car was hydrogen-powered if I’m not mistaken. Combine that with the color scheme, and you have a winner for sure.
10. Toyota GR010 Hybrid Race Car: Imagine doing some laps around Le Mans in this vehicle. Thinking about it makes my head spin.
I saw many cars, some excellent ones. But these appealed to me the most. Do you agree? Or are my choices crazy? What do you think?
