When buying a car in Japan, you must first make a parking contract.

I love the way the streets are, all neat and detailed. Nice photo, thanks for sharing
Un pays de gens organisés cela évite le bordel ambiant et la pollution visuelle d'ailleurs je pense que c'est du Japon est née les modèles de couloirs de certaines stations de métros ou de gares où en fait les gens se croisent pour entrée/sortie ... modèles qu'on a mis en place en Europe et particulièrement en France néanmoins les gens ne respectent que très peu le système mis en place '. Ce qui entraîne bousculade, stress et des incidences'' merci ...
Désolée je n'ai pas remarqué votre emoji

What is a parking contract?
Apply to the state for a place to park your car. If the house has a garage, the address of the house, if the house does not have a garage, rent an outside garage and inform the country of the address.
In Singapore to own a car you must get a “certificate of entitlement “ COE. This lasts 10 years. So for a basic Toyota Corolla. You will pay 130,000. 40 for the car and 90 for the COE.
Needless to say I don’t own a car. I ride my bike everywhere.
Really? How is that?
Yes, according to Japanese law, people who have not decided on a parking lot cannot purchase a car. Those who do not have a parking lot at home rent a nearby garage. I also borrow🚙

I’ve heard they also tax you base on your engine displacement and weight. Big engines get taxed very hard annually.
