It's important for people who don't live in Japan to understand that our economy is having severe issues and people aren't spending as much because they're focusing on saving due to rising costs of everything.

Not surprising considering how prices have been post covid. No one should be paying 20k+ for a GTST, and 40k+ for a Gtr or a Jzx, especially considering you can get something modern with maybe 98% of the enjoyment, and 2% of the headaches, for roughly the same price.

@@thefallensaints nowadays dealers are asking 40k for R34 GTT coups and 20k-30m for the sedans. Nobody is buying the S15 Silvia’s either. I also own a few Skylines, definitely didn’t pay those crazy prices but I imported them all myself.
So that RX7 is over $25k Cdn plus you have to fix it up and import it to Canada. In my opinion that’s not a good deal at all, those prices have gone crazy.
I am pretty sure when I first moved to Japan in 2006, you could buy an R32 or FD for around 1.5 million yen, then when they became legal to sell in America the car dealers doubled there prices. Despite the yen being the lowest in 38 years I still doubt I will be able to buy one anymore. What I should have done is buy one back in 2006 when I first arrived when I had the money.
Prices of anything export-worthy in Japan are increasing fast enough to offset the falling value of the yen. Sellers are essentially pricing them at their $USD/EU/AU equivalent value in yen. I bought a RA25GT Celica from Japan about 10 years ago for ¥1.2m and I've seen similar cars advertised for more than ¥5m recently. Anything non-export worthy seems cheap to us, but its still expensive to them due to zero wage growth in the last 30 years. So the only people seeing bargains are foreigners bringing their strong dollar with them to Japan.
We stopped importing to the UK in 2008 due to the £ crashing.. pre then R32gtr 6k otr Evo4 full HKS 3k, S14 drag car (RB26 T88 Fconv) 4k.. Gt500 MK4 supra (3s get) 2.5k
These cars are no bargain at all (to ship to the US). You have to add Japan buyer's fees (if any), inland shipping to port, export papers, transatlantic shipping+insurance, US customs (paperwork and duty), US inland shipping, state inspection/certification where it's registered, state tax, and it's still a right hand drive car - which is a disadvantage on several levels. Insurance is surely to be HIGHER, as the car doesn't show up in Carfax or in the car insurance database when they plug in the VIN, so it has no verifiable history in the US.
I’ve said before and I’ll say it again. The shoe game and the car game go hand in hand. Shoe prices drop, so did the car market lmao! LOVE IT! Buyers market.

The last 300ZXTT was sold in the USA in 1996. There were minor improvements to the Z32 Fairlady TT in 1998.

Yeah I took advantage of the yen/dollar exchange and bought some Beatrush subframe braces for my IS300. I genuinely paid half taxes and shipping included of what Beatrush USA charges before tax and shipping for the same items.
@@imperial178 yeah huge difference. Beatrush USA wants $323 plus tax and shipping (around $400 total) for the front brace and Blackhawk Japan charged me $146 with taxes and shipping included.

The weird trend over here are Chinese and Sri Lankan lot owners who scout for the breaded importers in Dubai. They scoop up a 100 cars at a time. No bargaining as the Japanese see the JDM blue chips as a better store of currency that ¥ in the bank so to speak. My 2 cents after living here for two years.
Getting them to UK is still +£2k for shipping and duty+vat @20% from the whole price(shipping included). There save you some research if you are in UK.
Nah mate. Nothing to do with Currency Exchange Rates. Japanese Used Cars have always been relatively cheap. After 3 years the additional road tax makes them a losing proposition to the owners. Pay more tax per year of age of the Car.
Sammit! You know all the people, all the hidden signs, all the rules and pitfalls. Why are you not getting a small team together and being a exporter. All the peeps wanting these cars would benefit so much from your experience and honesty. Just a thought
All time low in 39 years. It was similar in 2014 and lower in 2004. In the late 1990s it was possible to get 220 yen to the pound. Today its 205. Right now is a good time to buy Japanese imports. But it could get better.
Shout out sammit for dropping the knowledge for so many years now I remember when he did mention about all the scammers on how they would do it but he just reminded me how they can be
It has less to do with the jpy conversion and more to do with how the used car market works here, it's not big like it is in the US. That said most cars that people are interested in exporting are just being overpriced at this point taking out the margin for the exporter if the goal is resale. I have an R34 and Audi Q3 here currently, I'll send the R34 back to the US with me once I go back home but will likely just junk the Q3 because it's not worth the effort of trying to sell used and it's not valued high enough for me to care.
You should fix thst 180SX up. I picked up my 180SX with a CA18DET back in 2000. It was 3k AUD then 3k for shipping and 3k for compliance so it was a bargain and I still own it 24yrs later.

Cars might be cheap but shipping isn’t £2500 ish
Used cars here in Canada are still wild. Literal rusted out junk with 300k+ kms for $8k - $10k. New cars are insane too, $60k for a base model pickup truck.
a good low klm R34 here in america is over 200 grand .and i used to live on the gold coast in australia
Sileighty is what I’d get or an EG6 or EK9.
I keep seeing this Laurel C35 on the B-Pro auction website...
Want to help me buy a car? Seriously, have you ever considered exporting these car? You would be the perfect candidate to check the car and help us!
In the USA an s15 is still going for around 30k and 13 is a fair price but after tax and shipping it would still be close enough....been looking for one aince I first saw one in '98....glad to hear the rebate thing though looks like I'm gonna be back on the active hunt over your side of the globe...I was old enough to drive a few years before learning what an s15 was and while.skylones are awesome idk what it is but the s15 body lines are top notch for sure.
That fd would be roughly £15.6k.. there more expensive than that to buy here in worse condition
11K for a vehicle with 150,000+ miles is absurd. Maybe because they are rare.
I’d buy that chaser right now if i knew how to purchase it and have it brought to me in California
Evo 8 has the Mitsubishi "lotus" logo on a triangle on the grill. It is knokn as mount Fuji. So that one is a 9
Can you do a video on the European cars in Japan? There's load being imported from Japan to here in the UK and for very cheap prices in the UK market. I wanna know more about how cheap they are in Japan. Thanks
Forget all the Skylines, show me those JDM Priuses, baby! I want a RHD Prius G's. If I win the lotto, I'm going to get one of those bad bois imported.
that jzx100 was sooo clean 😍, great video bro!!!
1:38 is a civic FD
These videos are my favorite!! I'm loading this one up on the tv
Is there ever any worry amongst locals that there will be a shortage of cars because of all the exporting?
A few weeks ago. I saw my 1st s15 here in the states. I lost my shit! Was so excited to see one
Definitely a good time to buy JDM cars if you can take advantage of the weak yen.
