Ten years ago boys and rewatching these videos and they are still so good 👌👌
Jackson Rainger me too ha ha

Still here in 2022
15 years ago for me🫢 i still remember this coming out
AE86 HERE I COME :D
Enjoy it!
Dont get a girlfriend yet get the ae86 before you get a girlfriend

PharaohTi$A IT'S MINE!!
Takumi mode, Deja vou!
Wow fuck, I love these old videos
Millsie :3 and this is 3 years ago 0.0
I love that Japanese guy's accent man! Hint of Japanese with proper American. Sounds so good, surprisingly.
So glad I live in Canada :) R34 skyline's and S15 silvia's are coming next year.
Golf wagon's are really common in the UK, lmao
This was my all time favorite episode
my cousin lives in new zealand where importing a used car is tax free i think or not illegal or just alot easier so she now has a mazda axella (essentially a mazda 3) the had 60'000km on it for a chaper price... i think
love the last 14 sec. of this video! you guys are awesome!
I about fell out of my chair for that wheelie ticket.
you and me both pal!
doesn't surprise me, i live in Australia..... you can't fart in Australia without getting fined/taxed or thrown in jail!
I dream of the days i will only get fined for pulling a wheelie on bike!
that's the thing, mine bought japanese cars and tried making their own by mixing with european brands. well don't get me wrong they do produce good cars. i just feel like they can actually build something more with less, if you get what i'm saying.
"i didn't even know they had any" gotta love aussies
this video still great in 2021
Love the video! Funny and well made. It was the STI Forester, correct? Good choice.
I wanna go to japan now.
Holy shit Japan looks intense! New car ever 2 years or so? Really?!
1 of those pimped out nissan van, 1 mini van, 1 FD, and 2 different s13 240sx hatchback and coupe all in different years PLEASE
marty looked so chuffed with his popper.
is the green drink Marty has in 12:37 Melon Fanta? When I was out there is was everywhere!
He said initial d to the 87 corolla. And it's funny cuz it's an underground b rated movie no one watches.. But I did so it was cool.. Made me feel not so alone
I need to come in contact with that sick car dude
Ok that is what i thought, i figured it was the car they do work on in the later episode
Dpad ↴+HK(A) スパイラルアロー Cammy drill-bid on the Kaicar @14:38
Thumbs uo for the ending
They have a cat! You guys just got a thousand times cooler, as did this video.
i think it's more about the importing process from Japan
i need a guy like nabuo
moog what brand is your cargo pants ? im loving it man
how much was the car and shipping in $USD?
how much for the shipping cost of the half cut car to australia ?
well.....
off to japan
200$ for a wheelie?...damn these people really mean busyness
haha mine to! but i just called my mechanic to bring down my emu so i could go on my way
Moog looks like hes from the 70s lol
do you not get golf estates in Australia? there are loads in England!
This was so fucking awesome i love other cultures i never knew about this super awesome vid
Anyone else disappointed that they didn't crank the bidet to 100% and see how crazy that water jet gets? Just Me?
me too
Yup, I was just shouting: MAX IT OUT!!!
floor etttttt
at 60% it hits the vtecYO... At 80% it gets on the booooooost.
it wasnt a bidet, that was a toilet.
who else was hoping that they were going to get the mazda rx7 fd
I was hoping they will save one of that wankel before some ricer gets it (Japan has really bad ricers)
Me
me
Bryant Rodriguez me
Watching these old videos makes me miss highschool.
I really fucking hated highschool.
The power of nostalgia my dudes.
Remnants of a simpler time.
Nostalgia is like a bad drug
Security "who are these guys"
Nobuo "loud aussies"
Security " go tell em to suck a shrimp"
hahahah so funny he even had a straight face saying it too xD
Fake subtitles bro, haha. Hense the straight face.
fake? who knows we would have to get a translator to listen to what was really said. but still funny stuff
lol it made me have a nice laugh
It may not be fake, but this just MCM's sense of humour - still funny as hell! Just saying it's most likely made up subtitles.
right on~! one of the many reasons i love MCM is their humour
still funny though xD thats why i am MCM fan haha
Nobuo Is really future Han if he didn't die
Who says he died, they're probably gonna bring him back.
+Drew Olsen sigh
I don't know if u noticed or not, but the car EXPLODED when han was in it
I don't know if u noticed or not, but the car EXPLODED when han was in it
Aleksis Blancas same thing happened with letty though
MOOG writes all the music for the show and wrote all of the special japanese tunes. The song is called "Dont Lick The Octopus". Most of the Mighty Mods tracks are on the mighty mods myspace. Will put these ones up soon.
Any chance this song can be uploaded to TH-cam Music? It's a great song!
im watching an 11year old video in 480p, boys after the rona i think its time for an updated video
200bucks for a wheelie 0.o wooooouuuwww
ha the funniest thing is, is over here in the US i got caught poppin a wheelie on my unregistered dirtbike while driving it around my block and testing and the cop didnt give me a ticket he just told me to go put the bike away or i would get a ticket LOL. i still cant fucking believe he got a ticket for poppin one ON A BICYCLE!!!! fuckin stupid!!!! thats why i prefer american cars because the people who build them are as free as me lol
12cwell people who build them are as free as you. hm in other news America sits in 21st position for overall freedom
12cwell the people who build american cars are mexicans and canadians.
fusionstar916. ALL fords are now made in the USA. cheverolet builds thier performance vehicles and thier engines in the USA thier normal vehicles are made in canada
depth aziri. come live over here, freedom really just depends on what state you live in!!! i live in southern california and i hate it but if you go to arizona or nevada they let you have a little more fun and i always jackin around in the desert. you see, people in the US say its free mainly because in the US everything is spread out and you dont have everything crammed together like you do in europe and when you live in more populated areas, thier are more laws and its easier to break them in a populated area. i also understand thier are countries like russia or mexico or even canada that are spread out but the US roads are more civilized then say mexico or russia. im glad i live in the US, everythings big and everythings comfortable thats why we govern the fattest people in the world LOL
Nobuo speaks english well. Wish I had a Japanese friend who can chat like that when I was in Japan.
Felix Wong Better than some Amerians, in fact.
JxC Case in point.
+Felix Wong except he sounds like a fuckin' yank....get him watching some british or aussie tv lol
+Mox_au Who cares if he sounds American? At least he knows the language well.
@@mittinss no
17:08 fabulous walking
LMAOO
Like really WTF was that?
15:34 Haha when the Rx7 goes by.. Classic reaction.
Its not an RX7 btw
+CHEZ PIZZA Yes it was, the blue FD is an RX7.
Okay Luke. My fault I was watching the video from far away and thought it wasn't one, thanks
+Wolf Blood RX7s are beautiful
+menzáč Yes, I get to see at least one or 2 per week. :)
the buying agent sounds like han from tokyo drift.
It is
he's a korean
actually he is HAN
Has anyone else realized that Google has increased the number of commercials per video on Free TH-cam?
+Vanger48912 get ad blocker plus plugin. I think its on mozilla as well but I have it on chrome. bypasses every youtube ad!! plus much more
+Banks4004 ive got it also, but i doesnt make the video creators any $$
Woodsy ♕ never thought about that. you have introduced a moral dilemma
Ya I know
+Vanger48912 ADD BLOCK PLUS MATE
I need a JDM toilet.
The flush lever would be on the left side instead of the right.
JDM toilet with carbon fiber seat
I want that Initial D panda AE86.
so you can be boring?
torkju no so I can be a meme
DEJA VU!
N-NANI?!?!?? K-KANSEI DORIFTO?!?!??!!!
I guess Moog started loving the Isuzu Jimny at 18:24.
Greay video. I currently live in Japan and I want to check out the auctions one of these days. Unfortunately prices of JDM legends are going up like crazy as they hit the 25 year mark. Better start snagging up R33 and R34 GTRs ha
AHHHHHHH.......WHY DIDNT YOU GET THE RX 7 !!!!?????
why there is no any rx7 for sale in my country :( damn europe :/ at least we got cheap bmws
Leonard Nedosekov well in my country we don't have cheap bmws 20,000 + euros
Malone Camilleri rx7's aren't even cheap in America and they sold a ton here. first and second gen FC's go for close to 10 grand if they're in ok shape. if they're immaculate, forget about it.
Chance Calkin yeah your right rx-7s are fuckin expensive theyre wantedd by people to much to be cheap
Rx7 20 k ( 16k USd ) Australia
so fed up of this Citroen advert......I DONT WANT A CITROEN!!!!!!!
Can I find a 1988 toyota supra 3.0 gt turbo a ??? And how much will it cost to ship it to California??
i think that's a question for google, my friend
It depends on the car's price. The shipping is 200$(with that you get insurance for the car when it's on the ship) so if something bad happens with the car, you get your money back. Also... Hmmm you live in the U.S. I heard that they're strict with cars that have the steering wheel on the right side...
Amin Croes He could always be a mailman...
25 year car import law. That car is non compliant in the U.S
Bloom0to9 math isn't your strong suit, is it?
i can still hear the beeping from the auction 9 years later...
So how do you get in touch with someone like this? Someone who can get you a car. Also does anyone know how shipping to the EU works? I mean, these cars are actually cheaper than what you can get in most of the EU.
Just search for Japanese car importers in your country
You have to pay for shipping, and you have to pay import taxes and register it, and get it inspected.
+The Star of China if you use a importer here the cars aren't cheap anymore. they will only sell at local market value.
Out of all the different intros MCM has had over the past years, I think Season 2 had the best one. The intro music is so good.
Should have bought the Mazda rx7!!
Instructions not clear. landed in Mexico..
Anyone know what that beautiful turbo'd Suzuki 4x4 is at 18:14?
Jimny turbo, 1996
"Tell them to go suck on a shrimp."
"Good idea - thank you!"
Hahaha
Anyone still watching in 2019? or am i just to attached to the past XD
Yep
I want Nobuo's contact information...
Good thing I don't have to import a Nissan Skyline GTR R34 to Canada there's so many sellers here local selling the Skyline R34 ranging from $15,000-$42,000 a bone stock R34 here is around 15-22 grand and they're legal to own and drive
Gravecb7 Accord wat where? im in toronto i seen 2 skylines all my life here
anataking2 Go on Kijiji.ca and Auto trader I was born in Toronto but I live in Hamilton I seen one 4 door R34 skyline way back in 08 it was White back then the R34's weren't legal to daily drive in Canada now they are there's more sellers out in B.C. selling tons of R34's
Gravecb7 Accord yeah they're $10k in Japan so
How much are r34 v spec. In Aus there 70k
+Happy “Happy22” $42,000 with mods for a V-Spce in Ontario Canada or B.C. for a V-Spce without mods bone stock with a manual transmission you're looking at $30,000
Boy we in the USA don't get this luxury. The importing and plating of such cars would make it crazy expensive. What do you guys do for a living that affords you the money for this type of trip and expenditures?
Importing a JDM car to the US is not really expensive. around 900-2500$
So true... If your lucky
arcticman117 You have to remember we also have a ban on any car that is younger than 25 years old. Anything that has come out after 1990 is off limits. A guy brought in a 1999 S15 recently and faced prison and a 250000 fine. I think he ended up with only 18k fine but served the jail time.
John Dunbar Yeah it sucks The S15 won't be legal for anything but show until about 2025. And by then the availability of the car will go down quite a bit. It's some dumb way to protect our automotive industry as well as our county fears drifting.
In the U.S. We also have a "Show and Display" rule, which you can import any car but you can only drive the car 2000 miles, and it's heavily enforced. :(
How to buy a car, 1 hand over cash, 2 sign transfers
wait, you get fined for 200 bucks for doing a wheelie on a bike?
13:04 DAT TRUENO AE86 MY HEART BEATED SO FAST
Florim Elezaj I KNOW RIGHT? I WAS ALL LIKE :O :O :O
When he said "And bye to Initial D" I was like I want that car!!! :O
Honestly, if I could get one as my first car, that would be the most epic thing ever.
For some reason seeing it made me feel all happy and twitchy inside. XD
theLuigiFan0007 Yeah i feel exactly the same. It's such a good car, it has it's own soul. I would really love to own one, even though my friends and family would be all like "why dafuq would you buy such an older car" and i would just smile knowing that i have one of the best cars in the world.
want that car so bad :D
This guy kinda reminds me of Han from Fast and Furious lol
14:09 bid starto is English there is no translation lol
Zach Faulkner woooooosh
Zach Faulkner *start

That Nissan Silvia S15 looks amazing it goes really fast at the race track Good job 👏👏👏👏
Any One Else Watching In 2016??
Xav Productions old
2017?
Did they ever do a video on the car they bought? If so can someone give me a link that would be amazing c:
Yes. They did, actually a bunch. It's the s15 Silvia bro! :) just search for mcm Silvia S15 on TH-cam if you haven't seen the videos already.
Okay thanks :D
jadenwatt no problem bro! :D
Wow, i know its a 2009 video, but 480p seems so, idk, old...
that was "HD" back then. we didn't have any option for 720 or 1080p till around 2010 or 2011
We had hd Back in 04
Man, Japan is amazing !
it's so strange listening to Japanese people speak English. even though they know the words so well, and probably have better grammar manners than me, the dialect is just so obviously different. it's clear he's speaking the same language, but it's not the entirely the same.
White rx-7 was sweet
According to Japanese Odometer Check and everyone else, Edward Lee's been Caught Winding back the Odometers on their Cars........was Planning to go through them....not anymore... :\
"How To Buy A Japanese Car":
"Hello."
"Yes?"
"I'd like to buy a car."
"Okay."
"That one."
"Sign this, please."
"Okay."
"Thank you."
"Bye bye."
Lucky Australians, can buy such cars with converting them to right hand drive.
+Aleksandr Kamarov Is it required in your country to have it on the left hand ?
+Azagro im from Canada and we can have both sides. I hear rhd is more insurance than lhd though.
BranmasterG
I'm from the Netherlands and I shat my pants where I heard a right hand driven Toyota Supra coming from behind. So it's legal here also.
i've only seen a few rhd supras in Toronto. There is only one where I live hidden somewhere. However there are 2 mr2s near my house and a rhd rx7!
BranmasterG
Damn, why does my country have to be so damn casual? D:
song at 11:50
What was the car that he bought?
Nissan Silvia S15 :)
Will Price Cheers man
owh is it the white one he always use???
Yeah, Ryo Watanabe
Ryo Watanabe Nice name :3
You've got that backwards: bikes in Japan don't get stolen because they don't like second hand items. Bikes in Japan don't get stolen because it's an enthically homogenous country with a well-oiled economy, so they have barely any crime in every aspect.
Nex time when Mighty Car Mods goes to Japan, NEVER EVER dip the rice of the sushi into the soy sauce! just DON'T do that! You gotta dip the fish in it! Or else Japanese Sushi guys feel disrespected for their food! :D
Guys ... Pimp a Ford KA 2000 model plz

Anyone else in 2024 get this as a random video suggestion? I'm not mad. Not mad at all
Now how does that work. Lets say I get a car there and try to send it back to the US. The export dealer does it for me? I don't know how that works.
Such an american thing to say, just because people speak different languages doesn't mean they can't engineer car better that Americans
That blue STI Forester Looked SOOO BEAUTIFUL >I WANT ONE ! :"(
