Hi Martin,
We will be doing the same but with a Dutch car. And no race track
I don't really see why you couldn't drive it in Japan? You can get a temporary import paper/document when you bring your car along with yourself (so this is only possible using the DBS ferry)
And there is also the option to have short term insurance done.
This temporary import paper also means you don't pay import tax. But of course it is meant that you take your car with you again. So leaving it there would mean paying import tax. But I guess you would have to sell the car to somebody, and maybe nobody wants to have it? (because it is Left hand drive?)
While it will not be worth while for your car, it is possible to ship the car back to Hamburg for example, through a roll-on-roll-of ferry. It is not so expensive as container shipping. But still at least 1000 euro's and harbor costs.
