On my recent trip to Bangkok I got to take photos of a load of classic cars in a parking lot.
It was great just standing next to them.
Also saw a few on the roads.
I will upload them if anyone is interested.

Why ask? Off course!
A few months ago in Neihu I saw a classic Bugatti that looked to be from around the 1920s, a silver Porsche 356 and a yellow Ferrari Dino driving down the street together. They could have all been kit car imitations for all I know, but I was stopped at a red light next to the Bugatti and it seemed legitimately ancient.
Wow, that is so cool!.
Unlikely to be kit cars. They’d be ultra-illegal in Taiwan, since their inspection and approval would require some thought and a decision on the part of a government official.
If it was a few months ago they might have been part of the Japanese rally (see above).
I was thinking about that, but weren’t they just down South only? Can’t recall.
Alright, from watching the video posted on the last page, I’m sure now that it must have been part of the rally. I saw the exact same three cars in question in the video, but there were only the three, and it didn’t seem like an official event was going on. No pace cars or anything, and they were driving in traffic surrounded by blue trucks and scooters and the general chaotic riff raff of Taipei traffic. I spotted them just on the Neihu side of the Mincheng bridge.
Maybe now that Fukuyama -the Japanese singer who was like the spokesperson for the rally- is giving a concert in Taipei , they will bring some more? He’s supposed to be promoting Taiwan-Japan ties.
