    Never fully trust an auction grade. It saying grade 4 is great but all that means is the inspector could have gotten slipped $1,000 to overlook issues and mark it as that. Of course not all inspectors are shady like that but it’s always good to have someone look over the car in person and verify that everything stated is correct

    Im pretty sure the JDM bubble is bursting Right now. Sure rare trim and special models will continue to stay relevant but underdogs like Evos, S2Ks, RX-7 FC, 3000GT, and so on will Go down on price a little. Not saying they Go down to the price they used to 10 years ago but they will normalize now that collectors arent interested anymore and normal car fans Start to swich to newer models. Only the fans are staying (those who liked JDM before it was cool) and those People don’t pay overinflated prices. You can see that in a lot of cars more and more don’t get auctioned because the crazy high reserve doesnt get met. I think the normal basic trim JDM Cars outpriced their own targeted group of interested buyers

Like how much does Jeff typically charge? How much does it typically cost to ship your car from Japan to NA (Canada specifically) and how long does it typically take to get to the west coast of NA? Also what kinda things do you gotta end up paying for at the port? Yeah a newer NA car would be cool but Would much I’m wanting to spend Id rather just buy a car I’ve been in love with for years and curious on how much that’ll cost me
