What I was getting at is if on weekends and holidays he wants to go out into the country or see something specific it will be of use to him.
I'm not sure that the expense of keeping a car in Tokyo is worth it if I'm alone. I'm the kind of guy that'd be happy to take local trains around the county. Plus I'm totally scared of driving on the other side of the road.... that'd freak me out!
