- Christiansburg, VA is a town of about 20,000 people, and even if you spent all day walking around the town, I don’t think your take-away from the town would be “Hey, I bet this place has one of the largest collections of JDM cars in America and all sorts of other delightful automotive treasures.” But you’d be wrong. So very, wonderfully wrong.

I'm impressed at his car collection, but more so at his ability to afford the collection.
You can't say its the best garage ever and limit it to 6 minutes. GIVE US 20 MINUTES JALOPNIK!
We want to live in this garage forever. 20 minutes is still not enough. How about 20 episodes instead?
Jalopnik please
Yes! more episodes on this collection.
not for free
More episodes
Excellent and interesting video.
Just love it love it thank you for all the cars
THANK YOU for this! I didn't know this place existed. He has so many cars I'd love to buy! I just spent the last hour looking through all the listings. :)
From the first time I saw a Figaro, I KNEW I had to have one someday! Heck I would even trade my Trabant for one! HA!
I purchased a imported Rav4 from Duncan, and man, they are so nice here. Walking through the warehouse was such a crazy experience
He needs to start a Figaro racing league. Couldn't you just see 20 of them running around a track?
Top speed - maybe 90?
Passed by a kid on a go-kart. : )
@@SelectCircle It would be hilarious to watch. :)
You'd be laughing all by yourself in the grandstand. : D
Someone needs to do this in Gran Turismo the international Figaro cup
These are amazing!
Why is the video so short?
Devilfish698 they could have added another 6 more minutes.

Because the cars are all the same. You've seen one, you've seen them all.
I believe They could have added a few hours
@@BenitoRManzo We have additional footage
You could make a whole new series from this guy's amazing collection! I'd watch it
Cool video and gave you a thumbs up.
Wow , awesome
Common make more videos abt this garage !!!! It is incredible beyond believes 🙉♥️👍
Wow, just wow !
CAMERAMAN STOP LOOKING AT THEM, LOOK AT THE CARS!!!
Arken Ultor Just as bad as Leno!
FoR ReaLLy ReaL tHouGH
MIND. BLOWN
I work at a dealership next door to this place. This video does not do justice to the crazy shit he has there.
Where does he get the money??!!
@@joea1433 That's none of our business. lol He's earned his money just like you & I are. The difference is his decisions in business are far better than ours. LOLOL
Grab a camera and spend the day there for us and film EVERYTHING. PLEASE. lolol
@@manchild111 I think you should educate yourself about billionaires if you think they "earn" their money just like you and me.
Jeff Bezos has made $6.1 billion in just five trading days in 2018.
Where do you think that money came from? Who do you think worked to generate that money? Who do you think bears the inflation caused by the fact that we're printing billions of dollar, even worse we're generating electric money with no real value to it, meaning while one of the 1800+ billionaires is easily generating himself a couple billions out of nowhere, the money of everyone else becomes less valueable. There is no such thing as "earning" an amount of money which was created through the work of hundreds of thousands of people. It has nothing to do with intelligence, it has nothing to do with business strategy. It's a pyramid-system, nothing more and nothing less. If you fail to see that and put some academics and millionaires (who at this point have almost become the new middle class) and billionaires in the same pot then you have no idea about the economy and therefore shouldn't talk about who "earned" what.
Not specifically talking about the owner of this collection but wealth in general.
Never seen this many of Figaros before lol
Lol at the hearse at the end 😂
Very cool I want at least one of these cars please
If we ever buy a Figaro, we'll have to give it a name. It's that lovable!!!
I LOVE THIS PLACE
Something really different to the normal thank you for sharing would have enjoyed a more I depth video of the cars there
Wow just wow😀
Soo weird I love it!
this is a real treasure, wish they would remake this model again with modern amenities but an old world charm
My goodness, please make a longer video
Huge collection of Figaros! Une collection unique de 140 Figaro !
The Nissan Figaro was marketed in Japan at Nissan Cherry Stores only, yet became insanely popular in the UK in the 2000s.
wow that's bananas. nice.
holy crap he has half the population Figaros just chillin in his garage.
These kids didn't even seem to realize they were looking at a Japanes hearse this automotive speculator/used car salesman drives up in.
They are clearly idiots
More please guys
i hate people who lock great cars in warehouses instead of let them be driven on the streets like they are supposed to
I just spent nearly an hour on the Duncan Imports website looing at wild selection cars they have for sale. It's a good thing I'm broke, or I'd be on a plane to buy something.
I love Figaro!
You could do 4 seasons worth of episodes just focusing on this collection.
I bought my car from these guys. 1989 Nissan S-Cargo
I hear those are really slow. You might even say they drive at a snail's pace. hehehe, see what I did there? Thank you. I'll be here all comment long.
They sat in one of the S-Cargo's. Maybe we'll have to go back and dedicate more time on this wonderful and strange van.
@@Eatongee I was gonna make that joke. Badump tshh.
The S-Cargo is a great car to drive as a promotional vehicle, terrific for advertising.
Figaro has always been my dream car. But I have never really looked into. Are they worth buying, especially in the UK and how good they are on the road🤷♀️
I live couple of hours but have been there 3 times and spend about 4 hours walking around. Very Christian based business. No one bothers you and most cars are open to sit in. As mush as I've been there is always something I miss and see with next visit. They have a great web site and alot of cars are offered for sale.
That’s an amazing collection. Wow. I wanna go check it out. And why didn’t Nissan bring it here? SHM.
Whats the website so i can buy one of his cars?
Why not show the rest of it!??!?
1964-1972 American Musclecars are hoarded all over this country. GTO's, Nova's, Cuda's, Roadrunners, Chevelle's, Challengers, Firebirds, Lemans, 442's, Buick GS, GTX, Super Bees, Camaro's.
Bob Silver and that’s not very good for the true enthusiast who can’t pay the 70-100k for the great examples!
Does the owner have a web site they said everything was for sale and I am curious
3:33
This is the reason, NISSAN_FIGARO has become rare in Japan?
That is one terrific collection - holy cow! 👍
HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got to Virginia tech, as much as I love hiking and the like around there, this is easily the best thing in the area bar none
So that's why I can't find a Pao left in the UK!
@biryanikebab - Actually everything he has, save for a very small number, is actively for sale.
...at the price he deems appropriate.
I saw a figaro for the first time at my local Cars and Coffee and I couldn’t understand til now why it wasn’t the most common car on the planet
OMG!!!!! A Figaro dream!
“THUNK!”…Yes…I died…so many Figaros.
I would love to buy one of those figaros!!
Wow! Figaro heaven *swoon*
Cool....
@ jalopnik
WOW Do You have Toyota Ke 17?
This guy is living my lotto dream
גם אני
What are those English cars with the right hand side steering? Never seen anything like it before. GF would love one haha
super
Seeing cars that weren’t Intended to be preserved is awesome!!
What’s with the Nissan Figaros and Honda Beats?
All those nissan figaros omg
US insurance companies kept these out of America not Nissan. I owned a Pao for 10 years when i lived in Japan. Reliable and fun car with style.
How do you contact him to possibly buy one of those figaros
Borat: what is this?
Me: Figaro
Borat: And what is this?
Me: Figaro
I have a Mint Figaro in Canada, in Topaz Mist, the most popular colour.
so
Keep it clean as possible. Never fuck it up, ever.
@@North49191 ASO !
If I win the lotto. I would do the same thing Gary has done. I would live I a regular house and fill a warehouse with cars
Unbelievable.Its like a factory that produces them, it's so big.Nissan Figaro is a mk1 Nissan Micra under the lovely body.Theres one in my street,( Great Britain). Amazing collection.
We have additional footage of the cars and warehouse
Was this about the Figs or about three dorks?
I was hoping they'd find a Mazda 13B Rotary Pickup next to those Ford Couriers!
In what state this car show
That is so cool! Loved seeing all the Figaros and the Honda Beats! So rare!
I was gonna go there once but it closed at 2, it was currently 1:30, and I was a half hour away. Lmao they have over 100 Figaros
fricken speechless
If he loves the retro look of the Figaro , he would be supposed to own some Mitsuoka's as well i would think ? At least some Viewt's & Ryoga's , as wel as a 1st gen Galue perhaps ...
The 5th wheel rolling by @3:00
So he's the one that drove Figaro price up. 2 years ago i was shopping for fig and price was around $10~15k for clean mint. Now its over 20k now.
can send you one from new Zealand for half that price
This is Incredible. Good thing he sells these. It would be a crime if he just kept and horde them so that nobody would be able to drive them.
He keeps a few for his own collection and sells the rest (along with the other makes and models)
I am certain that these were imported in to Australia in the early 1990's as we never had any problem with tiny cars such all the Suzuki models like the mighty boy, bluebird in the 60's and many others from mazda and honda like the civic. I think this is because they were right hand drive like our cars and the british, south african and indian cars. We were used to all the tiny cars from britain including the austin a10 and the morris 1000, plus cars such as the morris mini. Tiny japanese cars fitted right in.
I know there's google, but not even a mention of the company Gary owns and runs? Not listed in the credits or even in the description?
duncanimports.com
I love figaro❤️❤️❤️
How much are they? And only in Virginia?
Did I just see a Yenko hood on a nova go by at the end?
Thanks for doing what you do Gary. Otherwise we wouldn't be able to see such a collection. Carry on.
Is this collection larger than jay Lenos?
Wow
Oh the pacer 🛻🚗
I saw a place like this in the UK once, 2 barns of classic cars from the 40's to the late 70's. Not as big as this place, but equally as gobsmacking.
A car hoarder! What next! I wonder what will happen to all of it when he croaks?
Wow it's just amazing. I hope there's a good fire protection. Would be so bad if this collection would be destroyed
What an amazing collection of classic cars. We own a Nissan Figaro owned since 2006, that will need a new home very soon. It's had a new cam belt, new inlet and exhaust valves, new cylinder head gasket, new front and rear bumpers, near rear lights, new engine mountings, rebuilt rear bakes, new brake pipe and a host of other items. Wonder if the chap in the video would be interested in it?
What is the name of the business!? I want one!!!!!!
I wish a WOW button existed right next to the like button, even that would not have come even close to the reaction it deserves :)
I'm assuming he bought the best examples of cars back then detailed them and parked them I wish I could do that now
I live in Radford lol you are so close to me lol
This video could have been so much better. Sorry guys. It doesn't cut it, as far as I'm concerned.
凄過ぎる!!
俺のフィガロや嫁が最初に乗ってたビートはもしかしたらアメリカで頑張ってるのかもしれないと思ったらなんか嬉しい。
