Fascinating. So many follow-on questions. Why four exactly? Were they all in Tokyo, or spread around? Did they get used for anything other than highway patrol? Who got to drive them?

The article said Kanagawa so not Tokyo. Well, close enough.
Four seems like a reasonable number for a trial purchase.
