Buy cars in JAPAN

Me and some friends are planning a trip to japan and we are most likely buying cars. But we need to know how to ship the cars here to the States.

I just drove mine back, but you can tow it with a jetski. Or just hide it in a shipping crate like all the guys with the drugs do in the movies. Nobody even checks those things.

If it was that easy more people would do the same thing. If you want JDM cars try Canada, they have most of the cars you would look for in japan. Good luck getting them across the boarder.. lmao

Lol I'm not really sure what everyone's beef is. Florida is a pretty diverse place. Same ratio of good, smart people and morons as anywhere else. I've been everywhere in the country, and I've seen much worse.

heres how it goes on zilvia if you haven't noticed..

One person with a high post count says something about a place/car/anything really, others want to look cool and gain rep amongst the majority so they follow, assuming its correct.

People on this forum fail wayyyy harder than florida. They are just jelly they don't have white sandy beaches(gulf coast) with sexy drunk women everywhere.

Besides that, op fails harder than anything previously mentioned above

Haha well I guess I have noticed. I guess that's why I normally stick to write-ups and for sale threads and execute my social life away from the internet.

Wrong.

Once you have been an active member of the Zilvia Community long enough you will notice that pretty much 80% of the fail threads are from Florida.

Hence the "Florida Fail" Joke.


This thread is a prime example. To me (and probably everyone else) its a pipe dream. a couple of kids wanting go to Japan and buy JDM cars and bringing them back tot he states without doing research. Instead of doing research on something thats been cover for years they decide to be lazy and try to make other ppl do the research for them.

If you have to come to a fourm and ask questions thats been covered for years then you are not ready to do whatever it is your about to do, espeically on importations laws.

Asking questions on fourms should be a "Last Resort", You've done research and tried everything but either its not working or your case is different, then you ask a question.

Not "hey guys what do I have to do to being a car back to the US."

I wouldnt know as far as other forums go, Zilvia is the only one Ive really been active with.

Ive tried Nico but that place is too big, Too many forums and subforums, plus a alot of tards over there.
