While it can be said that Japanese people typically appreciate simple elegance in their personal belongings, there is still room for individual taste. Every so often I see large western SUVs like these driving around and in addition to being expensive to own and maintain, they also seem to be a pain to drive. These SUVs are almost as wide as some of the supposedly two-way streets that run through many neighborhoods. Western cars are widely regarded as status symbols in Japan despite the fact that they are typically less reliable than their Japanese counterparts.
