"Tokyo Motor Show - 1991 #4"

Last of four clips from video taken on the same day in October 1991 of my visit to the 1991 Tokyo International Motor Show. Still more cars (Nissan, Porsche, BMW, etc.), more show-women, etc. After the show, scenes of the trip back to central Tokyo (from the Chiba Convention Center to Tokyo Station).

@MikeyRB77 I just looked that up on-line. At the time, I was focused (pun unintended) on recording the event, and so I didn't spend time to study any particular car. That is a good-looking car, isn't it? At that 1991 show, the cars on display were the future, so it's strange for me now to see that material as something from the past. The relentless forward motion of time.... - LHS

I finally found Nissan! Yeah - Nissan had some great show cars, and they had great performance and engineering in their production cars then, but they put out a few models with unpopular styling, and then lost market share. In fact, their flagship luxury car was downright ugly in front. It's too bad - with good styling, they should have gained market share against Toyota - not lost it. All day... yeah - it was a long day! - LHS

That was a pretty interesting concept car by nissan (the green one) kinda looked like the bat mobile though... XD

Wow... whole day.
