Get ready for an extraordinary journey that blends the love of iconic vehicles with the breathtaking beauty of Japan! If you’re passionate about Land Cruisers and haven’t stumbled upon Flex, it’s high time you explored what they have to offer. This innovative Japanese company specializes in enhancing Toyota vehicles with nostalgic body designs, and they also facilitate the import of JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) Land Cruisers through their San Diego dealership. Excitingly, Flex is now providing a unique opportunity for customers to pick up their newly acquired Land Cruisers right in Japan before they are shipped back to the United States.
During this week-long adventure, travelers will immerse themselves in Japan’s rich culture and picturesque landscapes. The journey begins with an overnight stay in the vibrant city of Tokyo, followed by a trip to Yamanashi, where customers will finally meet their Land Cruiser in a stunning rural setting. Next, participants will cruise to Nagoya to explore the renowned Toyota Museum, promising not just a fantastic first impression but a narrative that enhances the emotional value of owning one of these beloved classics. Furthermore, customers will benefit from the expertise of Flex's local specialists who are on hand to share insights about their new vehicles.
The itinerary continues as guests fly to Hokkaido, Japan’s northernmost major island, where they will visit Flex’s shop in Sapporo. They’ll also have the chance to unwind in a cozy cabin located in Tokachi, enjoying the serene environment before returning to Tokyo. As part of the Hokkaido experience, travelers will receive a Toyota Hiace camper van provided by a local tour operator, Moving Inn, adding extra fun to their adventure.
It’s important to note that the outlined itinerary is merely a suggestion; Flex encourages travelers to adjust the schedule to suit personal preferences, driving conditions, and unique experiences. This isn’t a rigid group tour, so there’s ample freedom for each customer to forge their own path.
The total cost for this unforgettable experience is around 2.7 million Japanese yen, equivalent to slightly more than $17,000 at today’s exchange rate. This fee covers accommodations, meals, organized activities, and local transport within Japan; however, it doesn’t include flights between the U.S. and Tokyo. Currently, this opportunity is available exclusively to U.S. customers who have purchased a JDM vehicle through Flex.
While this type of trip might stretch your budget—especially if you've just invested in an older vehicle that could require additional funds for upkeep—there’s undeniable charm in planning an adventure centered around your rugged, adventure-ready SUV. So, are you ready to embark on the ultimate Land Cruiser journey?
