maybe....i think so.

please visit this site http://www.fiat-auto.co.jp/showroom_500_price.html

sorry my english is very poor.
so i cant translate technical term

[ewandougie]

By the look of I think it is a UK spec 500 with a kmh speedometer stuck on, the engine figures look identical to the UK ones, althougth Babel fish completely failed to translate it properly (Why did it produce words like the soviet union wierd)....

Also found this article on it : http://www.autoobserver.com/2008/03/fiat-500-immigrates-to-japan.html

Pleased to meet you

Why do the price of 500s vary country to country ? Looked at the website and the cost in Japan for a 1.2 Lounge is £14,000. Under £10,000 in the UK

[VilleV]

I believe its because of taxes, Cadbury...:( Taxfree price is pretty much the same everywhere, but when you add local taxes the prices start to vary.

Welcome Hideyuki! Great to have our first japanese member! And a lovely looking car you have!

Also it will probably cost alot to ship the car from Europe to Japan
