Japan is much more advanced then the US. Their cars don't use carfax because faxing is an old and outdated technology.

This is indeed a well known fact about japan. Every car has a little chip in it that records accidents, average speed, average rpm and length between oil changes. This system is coming stateside in February but its been in Japan for like 15 years now. --------------------  (\__/) (='.'=) This is bunny.

japan does not use carfax, as is usa technology. The best way to figure it out is to call Mitsubishi Japan, ask who the 1st owner was, ask him if he had an accident, then ask he who he sold the car to and ask him the same question, and so on and so on, you get the picture.
Really, are you buying an MR2, then a JDM EVO, and maybe keeping your celica. Sorry, but i feel like there is no real intention to buy a car, but simply im guessing you are really bored and likes to post a lot around here. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...&hl=mrgrape you wanted a lexus http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...&hl=mrgrape but it must be under 10,000 http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...&hl=mrgrape You still have to learn how to drive stick... http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...&hl=mrgrape cause youre getting tickets all the time http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...&hl=mrgrape you are lost in life http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...&hl=mrgrape still dont know what to do with an ATm Card http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...&hl=mrgrape Dude, really you may suffer from a severe condition called superkalifragilisticexpialodoxious. So I suggest you find yourself a good clinician. forgot to quote you [Quote] I am japanese, and like to brag that I am pretty comfortable weaving through traffic and the likes and just general road driving so I am sure I can drive RHD with ease other then my left hand is now shifting the gears./[Quote] -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |
