Barn Finds
15 classic cars are hidden in barns across Japan (guide-sourced — Wikipedia is silent).
Barn Finds are classic cars hidden in barns across Japan, gated behind your Discover Japan stamps. There are 15, unlocked in batches as you climb the seven stamp tiers (Visitor to Master Explorer). Wikipedia does not list them, so this roster is guide-sourced and cross-checked across IGN, Windows Central, PC Gamer and Red Bull.
All 15 Barn Finds
In the order the Discover Japan stamp tiers unlock them. Locations are described by landmark, the way the source guides do — we do not publish invented coordinates. We list all 15 Barn Finds; some interactive maps still show only 14 (a stale count).
| # | Car | Unlocked at | Region | Where to look |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2005 Honda NSX-R GT | Visitor (yellow, 1/7) | Ohtani | In the woods along the north-west edge of the search area, where the two nearby roads pincer together. Rough terrain — don't bring a slow city car. |
| 2 | 1969 Toyota 2000GT | Sightseer (green, 2/7) | Ito | North Ito, not far from Minka House. Small patch of trees near the seawall on the south-eastern edge of the search zone, between the two paths down to the beach. |
| 3 | 1987 Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500 | Sightseer (green, 2/7) | Ito | Southern Ito, up the small wooded hill just south of the crossroads junction on the southern edge of the search zone. You can almost see it from the road. |
| 4 | 1971 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R | Traveller (blue, 3/7) | Nangan | Far south of the search area, past the houses on the main road — a dirt path leads off towards the barn. |
| 5 | 1989 Nissan Pao | Traveller (blue, 3/7) | Minamino | Woods on the north-east edge of the search area, down a dirt path leading off the main road. The Dodge Charger R/T Treasure Car is a short drive east. |
| 6 | 1982 Porsche 911 Turbo 3.3 | Pathfinder (pink, 4/7) | Ohtani / Tokyo City | Bamboo forest beside the dirt road between the two main roads that lead to Mei's House, in the Ohtani side of the search zone. |
| 7 | 1984 Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 | Pathfinder (pink, 4/7) | Shimanoyama | Barn at the end of the wide dirt road that climbs a short hill from the main road, in the north-east of the search zone. Visible from the main road. |
| 8 | 1962 Lincoln Continental | Pathfinder (pink, 4/7) | Hokubu | Patch of trees beside the colourful flower fields just south of the centre of the search zone, near Shikisai-No-Oka. |
| 9 | 1998 Nissan #23 Pennzoil NISMO Skyline GT-R | Pathfinder (pink, 4/7) | Takashiro | Woods on the eastern edge of the search area, inside the 'u' bend of the road. The Lancer Evolution III GSR Treasure Car is by the waterfall nearby. |
| 10 | 1997 Mitsubishi Montero Evolution | Navigator (orange, 5/7) | Shimanoyama | Forest on the south-west edge of the search area; a dirt path leads in from the main road not far from the Bandai Azuma Skyline Drift Zone. |
| 11 | 1997 Lamborghini Diablo SV | Navigator (orange, 5/7) | Ito | Eastern edge of the search zone — down the hill with the felled trees opposite the blue digger, then around the bend on your right. |
| 12 | 1998 Nissan R390 (GT1) | Adventurer (purple, 6/7) | Ohtani | Dirt path along the north-eastern edge of the search area, near the Ohtani / Shimanoyama border. Also reachable from the Bridge Underpasses Trailblazer start gate. |
| 13 | 2005 Mitsubishi #1 Sierra Sierra Enterprises Lancer Evolution Time Attack | Adventurer (purple, 6/7) | Shimanoyama | Woods almost dead centre of the search area, overlooking Narai-Juku to the south. Take the high dirt road up from the Narai-Juku Circuit road race, then the path on your right. |
| 14 | 1983 Nissan #11 Tomica Skyline Turbo Super Silhouette | Master Explorer (gold, 7/7) | Ito | South-western edge of the search area. Where the main road enters the zone from the west, a wide dirt path runs south between some oddly skinny trees — easy to pick out on the map. |
| 15 | 1991 Mazda #55 Mazda 787B | Master Explorer (gold, 7/7) | Takashiro | Woods directly north of the search area, past the buildings, walking trails and farmland. Dirt path off the main road at the north-west edge of the zone. |

How to find them
- 1
Earn Discover Japan stamps — mascots smashed, food delivery jobs, street and touge races, and above all the yellow-badge story missions.
- 2
Each stamp tier unlocks new Barn Find rumours (generally one to four at a time).
- 3
A purple circle appears on the map — drive into it to reveal the barn's rough area.
- 4
Search the circle for the barn; you can spot it fast by flying a Drone over the zone.
- 5
The car is sent for restoration, which takes real time — a couple of hours up to several days. You can pay credits to skip it, but it is rarely worth it.
