6G Celicas Forums

I believe the market is there... but you're looking at the wrong pool of people. No offence to you. Realistically speaking... if people here can barely afford 3SGTE swaps and turbo kits... I doubt many or any can afford a 12-20K used car without any sort of major financing help. The age group here just isn't very financially able.

i wish you the best and may your buisness be successful, let's just knock off all the negatives and support with the positives...we have a guy trying to pursue his dream and ours if we have the money...keep us posted

Mitsubishi FTO <suggestion

do we have a final price? And how long do we have to wait b4 we get it after we pay?

id be interested... after im out of college. i have to agree with what kwanza said above. most of us here just cant afford it. but still, itd be awesome if you could get gt-4s here legally

I would be interested in a st205. I was just looking at how much it would cost to import one and such. And for u guys looking for skylines already imported legally and registered in the U.S. if I remember correctly the site is modifiedcartrader.com. I saw a couple of skylines on there from 23K and up.

UPDATE:
My import process has been cleared by government officials I have contacted.
Paperwork still processing to become broker/dealer.
Waiting on lawyers approval, miscellaneous business stuff, and insurance underwriters.
Estimated time 1-5 weeks.

Contacts in Japan say 6gen GT-4, S15, R32, R34, FTO, NSX-R and other desirable JDM-only and JDM-spec vehicles are available, although specific examples come and go, the supply is fairly constant, they just need money and a little time to buy them. Few good contacts for European cars yet, most people are way too expensive, so no good places for diesel VW or Audi, yet. Australians are starting to talk, so Nissan RB30 engines and Holden vehicles look promising.

All in all, a good week. Thank you for your support.

I think what should be corrected is that while few of us can drop the money *today* we are a future market. We are diehards here and many us are going to be getting to the point in our lives where we have the cash in a few years. As for myself I know that if I wanted a gt4 badly enough I could probably afford half of it in a year and get a loan for the rest. Don't think I will, but more realisticly if I get a scholarship I could probably get the car without any issues (parents rock some times)

hmm... probably couldn't afford one for several years, but I'd take a GT-four... I'd sooner take a skyline though.

If u accept credit cards then I could buy one . I Have a 15 grand limit on my AMEX.

how the hell did u do that!? thats insane for your average joe

very interested. here's how i'm feeling about prices. if it were 6-12K i'd buy it in a heartbeat. more than that and i'd probably still buy, but i'd have to think about it more.

questions:
would being an importer/dealer enable you to dot register the clear headlight lenses. and, if so, would you be able to dot register hids for use with them. it'd be nice to have street legal hids. lhd would be damn nice to have as well. if lhd was taken care of it'd increase what i'd be willing to pay (of course).

i would love to see the imported cost of an R33 skyline mid 90s. Stock of course.

Yea i wouldn't be able to afford one. But then again just getting them into the states would be sweet. Because the people that do buy them will hopefully sell and then other 6gc people would buy. So i'd probably just wait till someone else gets one and sells it then i would take it up cause 15k is way to exspensive for me. Specially when i think i could make my celica a full GT-4 conversion for that price.

Actually how much do you think it would cost if you imported a front half cut of a ST205? Thats what i would like is a half cut.

I co-signed on a house for my brother and he hasn't missed any payments. And I paid for my celi for 6 years under my name, registation and insurance and never missed a payment. and I co-signed for my wife's galant. And she has never missed a payment. Oh and by the way I knew toyotas were reliable but never did I realize that fact so much till my wife got her galant.

Its not hard to get credit limits like that. I have 3 cards with over that much spending limit

lol 15k limit is nothing....


although can you get a GT4 rear cut, i'm interested in one of those

patiently waiting

Not true. If I had $15,000 I'd be driving in my own ST205 right now. My friend is the only person in Minnesota with a '96 JDM Type-R.

really? it better not be a lie cause i know of 3 people with RHD real type R s in minnesota...its not even rare here in mn
