Default driven in japan: R205 000/400
sure enough, came accross 000/400 of the R205's, the press/test car doing the round of japan.

car was awesome, as you would expect, very responsive, yet only reached up to a blip in 3rd, seeing over 100km/h in a 40 zone.

such a shame we wont see these sold locally
