Japan's Imperial Household Agency says nearly 20,000 people visited the Daijokyu complex in Tokyo when it opened for public viewing on Thursday. It was built for Emperor Naruhito to perform a key thanksgiving ritual marking his enthronement.
About 1,400 people were already waiting when the Sakashita-mon Gate of the Imperial Palace was opened to visitors at 9 a.m.
The 2019 Acura NSX is being offered with an extremely generous $20,000 discount across the United States, Motor Trend has revealed.
The new Acura NSX has struggled to move off dealer lots as of late, and Acura isn't being coy about adding incentives to its supercar. Motor Trend spotted an under-the-radar $20,000 discount, which is a substantial price slash on a car that starts at $159,300.
This incentive isn't actually listed or advertised anywhere on Acura's website, but Motor Trend's Intellichoice affiliate (ownership cost and value analysis site) managed to uncover the discount. If you bought a completely base NSX, the price could be as low as $139,300 now. That's before you do any other negotiations with your dealer to lower the price further.

Lexus Australia has hit a significant milestone — 20,000 hybrid vehicles have been sold since 2006.
More impressive than the number is the rate of sale. It took almost eight years to deliver 10,000 hybrid vehicles, but just three-and-a-half years to double the total.

The 2010-2014 ‘NT’ and ‘NW’ Mitsubishi Pajero has been added to the ongoing Takata airbag campaign this week, joining numerous other model years of the Japanese off-roader that have been recalled for the same issue.
In this latest notice, affected vehicles could be fitted with front passenger airbags that could release metallic fragments into the cabin when deployed in an accident.
The Nintendo Switch comes with its own software, and as is the case with all software and hardware, there are bound to be security vulnerabilities, holes, and exploits that have yet to be uncovered. Nintendo wants to know what they are which is why they have recently launched a bounty program for just that.
This will see Nintendo team up with HackerOne in which they are offering hackers rewards of up to $20,000 if they can find a security vulnerability with the Switch. Of course this $20,000 bounty is the max payout and it will range from as low as $100 and go up to $20,000, so safe to say that the flaw needs to be pretty massive for Nintendo to be willing to pay out that much.

Toyota is getting ready to start selling its first production hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle in its native country next year. And the government is ponying up real big in incentives. 
Toyota is enjoying plenty of success with its new GT86/Scion FR-S sports car.
Rumor has it that Toyota is working on a little brother to the FR-S in the form of a rear-wheel drive, five-door hatchback. It’ll be positioned as an entry-level sports car with a price tag around $20,000. At that price point, sacrifices have to be made, and in this case, this new hatch will be powered by a 1.5-liter powerplant with around 150 hp.
