Album! http://ift.tt/2tZGZ8k've been browsing r/cars for the longest time and now I feel like I have something noteworthy to post!Recently (within the last week) I moved to Japan (Nagoya area) for work. Since I was moving to Japan my company is paying for a car for me. However, I can only get a car that is 1500cc or less...luckily this brought me out of Kei car range (super compact cars).My Choices being limited and my taste being more sporty I set out on my hunt. I considered a few cars: Mazda Demio/2, Suzuki Swift, Honda Fit. Sadly not the most exciting especially since currently there is no Suzuki Swift Sport being made..One day I stumbled upon the Nissan March and found the Nismo S model..I feel in love with the design and requested it. And a week ago I lucked out and received it!It has striking a striking color scheme and just looks like it'd be a fun car to drive...oh and is it fun.Being only a 1 ton car, it handles like a go-kart. It has super sticky tires 205/45 R 16 87V Potenza Re11 tires so throwing it into a corner isn't a problem. the 5 speed manual isn't the smoothest..but you can't complain with such a car. The 1.5ltr in it make 114hp and it's more than enough with the low weight. It's made me realize why the Fiesta ST is such a fun car. Being so light, the speed feels faster than normal! It's more than enough power and I'm coming from an '11 BMW 135i.Best thing about it is that it's super rare. You never see another one around. The MT only is what makes it so rare. And since it's only available in the Japan Market, its something that I'll never have the opportunity to drive again!Album! https:http://ift.tt/2uygS5p next step is finding the car of my dreams to import back to the USA... via /r/cars http://ift.tt/2tZVTvt
