DEALERS DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW AUCTION PRICING IN JAPAN IS GOING DOWN FAST!

- Is the Japanese car market crash imminent? I think so! There is a massive correction underway as cars are now selling for all-time low prices at USS Auctions throughout Japan & dealers are no longer able to move stock at the higher prices anymore!

I genuinely died when you said Lamborghini 🤣
Look look lamborghini Testarossa
Me too lol
I actually pissed my self lol
is that a supra‽
Also when he said starlet but it's a mazda gtx literally says mazda on the rocker cover
I've been watching the auctions in Japan and very few cars are selling / meeting reserve so sellers have to get serious about whether they actually want to sell or if they are just there to cash in on the over-inflated values we've seen the past almost two years. That's why the lot is so full, nothing is moving because reserves are sky high!
supply and demand at its finest..
That's a thing I learned that made my dream car less depressing. If you look at the reserve prices ect. its pretty depressing, but then I learned about searching the data on cars that recently went across the block. They're not selling for those prices at all! The no reserve ones are selling for around my price range too.

Dude, I love these videos 👍🏼 Only a couple of minutes in but I’m sooo hoping prices are coming back down to somewhat normal.
You're dreaming the going up , 180sx 200000km 2 yrs ago 1 million yen 3 grade now 2.5 million yen
@@coopsnz1 youre wrong
@@xxyy7499 Ra grade 1.9 milion yen , can't be rego
@@coopsnz1 mate prices are plummeting I got contacts in Japan no one is moving stock any more
@@coopsnz1 I think you’re half right along with @Tom_K. Prices will surely drop, but I agree partially with you that they will never drop completely back down to pre-covid levels. Fine by me though, as long as prices drop close enough back down to earth to make them worthwhile again.
I just hope the used parts market corrects itself as the price for parts in Australia for used parts is just ridiculous!.
Same for NZ... sucks
US as well. Spoon Ctr cluster sold for $1k two years ago due to the pandemic. Can’t find any Honda parts for good prices and most motors that are worth $1500 are going for $4500 just for the short block.
AUS and NZ market are crazy. I don't understand why!? I still pay 1/4 of the price compared to them.
I always amazed how much knowledge You've got when it comes to Nissan's and know NOTHING about other cars.
It’s hilarious he’s a car weeb
About friggen time prices come down! They’ve gone insane and out priced their own market demographic’s purchasing abilities lol
At first I wondered why he overlooked the STi and WRX, but when he mentioned the EVO it all made sense.
I say get the tme that’s already together and sort of whole, we don’t see a lot of the work that would be done to the body at the body shops anyways and honestly seeing it come now would be awesome. Jimmy Oakes just got rid of his pewter s15 because Adam sold him the yellow s15 he wanted to make the pewter one into anyways and to me it’s not been upsetting just happy it it came together for him
Perhaps you could ask the guys that have been importing cars for years to explain the grading system to you. To me it looks like the more stock a car is (engine bay wise at least) the higher grading a car can get vs something modified but cleaner
That would be an awesome idea, would genuinely be interested also as you dont find much info on that side of auctions
Hey Sammit the car you referred to as a Starlet is actually a Mazda Familia BG, love your videos keep up the good work from Australia 🙌
I seriously hope Sam was being ironic when he called the line up of Ferraris Lamborghinis...
Edit: so according to another comment by the man himself, it was a joke like I had hoped. Delivery of said joke was not on point.
The e30 M3 is a six figure car all day. That's probably worth more than some of those Ferraris.
"I'm slowly learning about Subarus"
Also Sam: passes by like at least a dozen sick Subarus that aren't S202. I'm pretty sure I even saw a black Forester STI when he was fixated on one of the many junk S15s.
He's not. He knows jdm cars, but put him in front of any euro or american car.... aaaaand he's lost
@@rokasrokasrokas Right, but anyone truly into cars should immediately be able to differentiate between Ferrari styling & Lambo styling. If you asked me to name what model those cars were, I'd probably be able to do it for like a handful of cars for each brand since I don't know jack shit about them beyond that, but I could tell which one is which.
@@rokasrokasrokas pretty sure he is just memeing. LZ was doing this a while ago :D
@@marekzelenak8419 I dunno, doesn't seem like it from his presentation, which is why I said I hope that's the case. With LZ you can tell. Sam usually has a dead giveaway when he's saying something wrong to be funny.
literally screaming as he passed that white gc8
Hey man. Glad to see your making vids that benefit the car scene. Hopefully you can inspire other car youtubers to expose stealerships and bring these damn prices down lol
We want more of these!!! I like seeing all these amazing cars 🔥 but anyways keep doing what you’re doing SAMMIT and never give up. much luv ❤️
0:20 'lamborghinis'💀
Ikr
14:40 *nice 'starlet' sam* lmaoo
"i've always loved those starlets"......pops the hood it says Mazda😂👍🏻
Love the video Sam! I've been waiting for an auction video forever lol 😂 But the black startlet you mentioned isn't a starlet it's a Mazda 323 hatch with a B6 or a BP engine in it just letting you know man keep up the great work 🔥
its a mazda familia gtx, use to own a white one
Familia*, just got one free the other day, road legal to lol
@@lxopenfirexl7007 323 and Familia are just different names for the same car.
Sammit that "starlet" is a mazda familia 2door hatch mate
i find it funny that sammit has cars that are pretty much write offs because of the amount of rust they have and he be like " this is just surface rust and the body shop can fix this easy" but then sees a couple of small rust spots on an auction car and starts hyperventilating "ThAt Is SoOoO BaDDDD!!!! oMg LoOk hOw BaD iT iS!!!!!!"
thank you so much for posting this (: for all of us in the USA.. possible hope 🙏
These auction videos = peak sammit entertainment
I think it was a popular craze during COVID and now people who were buying into the hype are now calming down. People are also more aware of rust issues and aren't willing to pay high prices for them anymore. Obviously, as you said collector cars will always stay high priced, but I think the extreme hype is over, at least until S15s and R34s become legal in the US. Then there will be another spike for those, unfortunately. I've been wanting an S15 for like 15 years, so I'm hoping to get one before the prices go back up
Loved the yelp "Prelude!" Prelude Power!
Bondo- tweaks in the metal-
one thing.
Drooping puddy, I can ASSURE you- only gets worse with time. *and fast*.
avoid using it, and avoid buying cars with it on it, unless ofcourse you're ready to do some body work and make it your own.
I've used red puddy on projects of my own- and within one cold season it's cracked and bubbling and I have to redo it by summer with the right stuff.
love your channel Sammit, walks around the parks and seeing whats out there is always fascinating to me-
Can't help but wonder all the stories these cars would tell if they could speak to us.
17:40 - Shout out to the T.M.E. and also the Nyan Cat playing in the background. Now that's something I hadn't heard in years!
Love the camera quality and audio!! its amazing!!
one day i hope i can get my hands on a crx always wanted one when i was 8 years old. The black one looked alright but possibly rust issues but as long as it runs im find with it fixing it up is the fun part anyway.
If you're in Australia i know of a CRX thats been sitting for 6 or so years, you could probably go offer to buy it
Now owning a Gs400 for about a year, I feel like owning an Aristo would be a dream car, big body 2jz sedan.
When sammit calls a mazda familia a starlet 🤣 ffs
Haven't seen a 1.8BPT engine in a long while. They are really nice cars.
These are my favorite kind of videos you make
I put your videos on in my shop because you're one of the guys who "get it". So another point of reference for you... I've been deeply involved in the vintage BMW market for twelve years and have watched the rise of those cars. There is a clear cooling off happening there in this market as well. A lot of investor "enthusiasts" are getting nervous, as some guys I know have liquidated a good portion of their collections.
Doesn't matter so much for many of us who aren't doing this for the money.
what ive noticed in most of your auction videos, the rarest couple of cars that are rarely seen in meets or auction lots are 300zx and Mr2,
I'm glad I held off on buying an s15. It looks like the prices are coming back in line.
started laughing really hard at 17:39 when the nyan cat song started playing in the background :DD
I loved you showing the cars bro, it must be really nice to look at all these gems, awesome!
Thanks man, can't believe the amount of cars at a auction.The camera was good, showing depth, just had a bit over bright when going back to bright, still good .
oof 14:38, definitely not a Toyota starlet... it's a Mazda Familia 323 gtr. Runs a turbo 1.8 Miata engine four wheel drive!! mega rare for Mazda fan boys. Would have raced against the EVO in Group A rally.
Sammit: Lamborghinis... ---> (points at 5 Ferraris..) :P
I'm just going to assume the Lamborghini was sarcasm.
yeah, it's a thing that him and some of the US guys do.
Good to see prices coming back down
No way! An auction video!? love em
all assets such as houses, stocks etc are all coming down. people are holding onto their money with cost of living going up (fuel, inflation - we have no lettuce in Aus lol, interest rates), so naturally discretionary spending is declining. I wouldn't say it is "correcting" the car prices and collectables are not immune to economy changes. and the economy is in really uncertain times.
that starlet is a mazda Familia, likely a gtx 4wd turbo 1.8.
Yeah deds gtx rare af we crashed them all in nz lol
@@isaacnewton7940 hey fellow kiwi, hard to find in nz now. Used to be common as. Love me a bfmr.
Haven't seen a BPT engine in a long while.
@@UrbanMenace0187 100 percent. Stacked had a few go through japan auctions
The conversion rate for yen to USD has actually been hovering around 100¥ to $0.75, so when that S2K sold for 31, it actually is closer to $23k-$24k USD, which is just DUMB cheap. It’s a great time for the US buying from Japan right now.
Hey Sam. Thanks for taking my suggestion on the stabilization! Vids are EPIC now! Dare i say PERFECT? Loving the auction yard vids!
thank god, I've been really wanting to pick up a 180 lately,, but these prices are wild right now
Bro! You didn't just call a row of Ferraris, Lamborghinis. Imma pretend that didn't happen. 🤣
(Btw, if you don't know what something is, slow down with the camera so we can see it. You tend to pan over stuff you're asking us to identify really fast and incompletely. :)
Ngl i would be addicted to those auctions if i lived there
That little black hatchback was a MAZDA 323 GT-X...it was not a starlet 🤦♂
I mean... why would you ever buy a used s2000 for 30k when you can just purchase a new car with modern amenities for the same price
The problem is the hype, people buy JDM just to resell it for higher price in the future, but alot of people are not caring anymore so they will not buy it... And alot of emission rules all over the world will make this cars road circulation much difficult...
I damn hope they come down. I remember watching one of your videos back in 2020 before I got to Japan, and in the background was an S30 Fairlady Z for 2.3 Mil Yen. As soon as I got here in 2021, it was already impossible to find a S30 for under 4 Mil Yen. I just hope I can still make my dream come true of owning and driving an S30 in Japan before I leave.
Good content man but ur starlet is actually a Mazda 323 😂
Here in the Netherlands is a old stocks Silvia S13 and a Lancia Delta just rotting away
Finally acknowledged a Subaru after passing a bunch of them lol
Figured this owuld happen with pricing. Completely missed the old Civic next to the JZX100 @2:38 ...those are getting super hard to find and would love to own another one
This guy never gives any love to Honda that fd2 civic was nice
18:16 Kalvin Mali “rust is to a minimal” reference.
I would of been curious how much an FD is selling for. I live in europe and right now the market is so unstable here. Wonder what it's like in Japan
4:06 bro during the curtain comment I was thinking OK SAM THATS ENOUGH ALREADY THANK YOU 😭
Thanks man, definitely excited for the market to correct itself? Waiting to crack open my jdm piggy bank 🙏
On 17:39 I thought I randomly heard nyan cat song but end up its from your video lmao
My second car in 97-98 was just like that black crx. It was a 88, left hand drive. Wonder what that black crx went for
he said Lamborghini in a such confident way, i cant 🤣
The 180 is cool but no way in hell that it is 3.5 should be an R. The rust hiding on the S15 was so bad. To me light or even heavy rust is not a red flag as long as you disclose it or if it is really cheap. The red flag for me is when they try to hide it.
A lot of bad/paid for grading recently
HASHTAG LOVE THEM RED LAMBOS LOVE THE CONTENT MAN!!!!
I live in Japan and I'm into cars so I'm in the know. Looking for an EK9 at the moment.
I have not noticed any price changes for the Kei cars since covid .
When buying a ticket to Japan, buying a car there, importing it to the USA via ship, and transporting it across the country is cheaper than buying one at home: *Bruh*
I hope Japan will still sell these things in a few years when I’m out of college and have a job. I have extestential crisis all the time because I don’t know if I’ll get the car I want when I get just a little older. They’re too fucking expensive here. *UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!*
Interesting seeing that the price of the cars are going down. Here they are still super super expensive. Lets see :D
At 13:30, this might not have been an attempt to conceal rust, rather convert it. Tannic acid/organic polymer rust converter products like Corroseal end up looking black.
Would turn down the mic a bit on the camera, bit peaky at times especially when you turn the camera around to yourself.
😂I really rewatched that part multiple times to find where do you see Lamborghini 😂
The second you said “Battery’s dead” on the gts-r my headphones died 😂
I was shocked at that s2000 price. You can get a clean s2000 in the uk for £8000
Several Testarossas in one place.
Sam : "that's nice" 😂😂
Yeah there’s a dealer in the US called Lucky Lopez and he has been talking about the the auto loan crash for months .
Great vid Sam!!
2 of my dream cars set together (s15 and the 180sx)
Auction cars must be seen by the buyer if its possible by any chance! Photos hide ALOT and cameras footage too! What i know that in saudi arabia where i live ppl most of the time looking for japan imported mercedes W140s and idk if euro/american cars comes to japan right steering wheel based or left based like what we normally used to drive! And i never knew ur an R33 fan! Finally we share the love of in my opinion the best GTR generation and theres the chaser JZX100 1 of my dream cars! And idk but i doubt that the market is getting down especially the world still suffers and its becoming worse from what i saw but i hope its gets better for us in general
Haha, you actually listen to us about the video stabelizer 😅🤣📹
I’m pretty sure the m3 e30 is a evo 2 model probably my favourite e30 shape very rare to see now especially in Japan!
How do you know its a evo??
@@ameeranees7333 I’ve had one I can tell from the body shape and the bumpers it either has the kit put onto the car or it’s a genuine m3 evo
@@mattp544 Its a 1987 so maybe its has the evo engine but i dont think a evo 2
@@ameeranees7333 possibly it’s hard to tell as it’s been modified so much I don’t think they would’ve done that to an evo I hope they havnt anyway haha
@@ameeranees7333 actually from a second look the rear spoiler doesn’t have the lip under it that my evo 2 had so I think your correct!! I stand corrected 👍👏
My man really just passed a Testarossa without checking it out 😂
Absolutely love your honest detailed content. Much love from Melbourne
Jesus christ I want that grey Prelude in front of the green S15. That thing was beautifully mint. I would also import that black Evo 8.
the rx7 inspired 180sx looks like pure rice, im surprised Sam didnt notice that its a rip-off of the orange rx7 from fast and furious.
Man that Lamborghini comment got me lol. So much red... ya know who likes red... Ferrari! Lol
Did you not notice that it wasn't a starlet that he looked at was a Mazda 323 haha
That purple evo you found was there 5 months ago from one of your past auction videos
The video great and the audio of the camera is crystal clear! You're doing a great job everytime Sam... May I ask, what camera are you using now?
Did my guy just call Ferrari Lamborghini?
Many Lamborghinis, then pointed at multiple Ferraris, I’m dead 😂
try holding the camera by the lens when shooting forward but in selfie mode id suggest a tripid with handle
...keep up the good work, Sam!
I love the video and hope I can grow as big as you one day on yt
Question for you Sam I know you know alot about japanese auctions but do you know how I could buy an Aussie car at auction and import to Canada (canada has a 15 year rule as apose to the us witch is 25 years)
I've always wanted a Ute of any kind or a modern 2000's from falcon and or a comodore of some sort or just a cool Aussie car
Hope you answer
Thank you and have a great day
Can you please recommend realiable dealers that can go inspect cars in USS and other auctions and take care of all buying and exporting to Europe procedures? Thanks
"Lamborghinis" *proceeds to point out bunch of Ferraris* get your shit together xD
If the market actually ever goes down I hope all these UA-camrs don’t say a word
exactly
Oh no Sam! You called ALL those Ferrari’s Lamborghini’s 😬😂
That FD2 Type R. Sad you walked right by it lol.
Wasn’t a starlet Sam, that was a Mazda 323 should be turbo and awd irrc 👍
