    Don't say you can't find one - I have one sitting in my driveway for sale, and another sitting about 10 miles from here for sale. Both are much faster than stock.
    yh i know yu can find them here, but those on tcv are dirt cheap though. like yu can get a modded one pushing 500+ for under $10,000, yu'd have to pay 3 times as much over here for a gud one

    The one in my driveway is a 93 and has a T-78, AEM, etc. It can easily do over 500rwhp. And it is no where near $30K. He is asking $18K and probably will take less. It just sits, and never gets driven.

    Also, have you ever imported a car before? It is not as simple as it appears. It is much easier to export than to import a car.

    Its not going to be 10,000 to get a RHD Supra here.

    Trust me. I know people with imported cars, expensive ones.

    Its a long, expensive process to get the car to your house and there's alot of money on the line if you screw up.


    It would probably be more expensive to import one after all the fees anyway. You think these JDM 12 digit vin cars come with a title? LOL, think again. That's another fun process too.


    My advice, buy a Supra here. Save yourself the money and pain and stress of importing a JDM car.
