Gray Imports?

Hi, lately I've been thinking about importing a 15 year old JDM vehicle due to the 15 year restriction and I was wondering about the reliability of 15 year old cars from japan. I know japanese cars are reliable in general and most have low milage but they are still 15 years old. The car in particular I was thinking about importing was a Toyota soarer (the SC300/400 model) with a twin turbo IJZ.

I bought a 1992 rx-7 4 months ago from jdm imports, they are cooperative and they dont scrue you around, i think i got a really good deal, it has over 400 hp. they will show you if theres any dammage on the car and if its ever been in a accedent. i paid 11,000 for it and it had 90,000 km, the thing is better then what i dreamed of and I would deal with them again. And no problems with it yet and the thing runs really nice. emmitions passed better then most cars over hear do

Hey, if you're still interested in the Soarer, let me know, I'll probably be able to supply one from the JD market for you, complete with a pre-shipment inspection, prior to purchasing.

I've brought in my own import, buying it on auction, having it shipped, getting through the red-tape...everything.

Neat experience and a nice example (CZ32 Fairlady TT, Grade 4, 88K on the clock) with no issues over the 3 years which I've owned it.
