Thank you Yoshi for your time and wealth of information!!

[@hpautostyle]

Thanks so much for sharing this information, so many people are unwilling to explain the process of buying a car in Japan

[@tombracejr4024]

Super glad I saw this video. I just emailed yoshi. I’m pumped to chat with him tomorrow 👍

[@livingthislife]

Let Yoshi know you watched the video👍🏾

[@davidbeaumont4455]

I have had the pleasure of working online with Yoshiro 3 separate times! Great guy. His knowledge of both languages and cultures make him super valuable to a bidder. Also he’s really nice and super responsive to communications! I highly recommend Yoshi and JCD! Cheers!!

[@livingthislife]

I want buying swift and export india how much money

[@CrisbysHangout]

I'm completely new at buying export cars thanks for this info I saved his website also . What do we need to do once the car arrives at our port? I heard something about a broker? What is a broker what does he do and how or where do we find one if we need it? Also you mentioned in the video that this export company does all the paperwork needed to export a car. But again what is needed on my part once the car has arrived at my port ?

[@michaelrivera2030]

i've been recently getting intersted i nbuying a car from japan(my dream car) and as other commenters stated, most jdm car youtubers dont really give any info on purchasing jdm cars so this was very informative

Great info. Just a heads up, in Australia we have a rule like the US 25 year rule but ours in cut off at 1989. So you can import into Australia anything built on or be for 1989. I've imported a Prelude and CRX with success.
