Pizza California Tokoname (ピザ・カリフォルニア 常滑店), Tokoname, Japan

When I first saw this car, I did a double-take. While the color scheme and logo from a distance looked familiar, I had a moment of confusion because I was in Tokoname, Japan, which is near Nagoya's Chubu Centrair International Airport. As I got closer to figure out what I was seeing, I noticed the size of the car and the logo, which has an accurate facsimile of the California Highway Patrol (CHP) badge logo, minus the surrounding words found on the real patrol cars. From Wikipedia, it is a Kei car, K-car, or 軽自動車, which is the Japanese legal category for the smallest and most limited power, highway-legal motor vehicles, including passenger cars, micro-vans, and Kei trucks.
