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!

[@kevinbeltboost8075]

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!

[@WhuDhat]

supply and demand at its finest..

[@bennyb.1742]

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.

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 🙌

[@Zzz76532]

thank you so much for posting this (: for all of us in the USA.. possible hope 🙏

[@1400r]

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 Sam. Thanks for taking my suggestion on the stabilization! Vids are EPIC now! Dare i say PERFECT? Loving the auction yard vids!

[@ulqui0rra]

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

[@aadams3316]

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.

@@lxopenfirexl7007 323 and Familia are just different names for the same car.

[@hannahalmager6740]

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

[@Vodkyz]

Great vid Sam!!

[@mjc8248]

I'm glad I held off on buying an s15. It looks like the prices are coming back in line.

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!!!!!!"

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.

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.

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.

Interesting seeing that the price of the cars are going down. Here they are still super super expensive. Lets see :D

[@garagelifestyle]

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.
