Wow, those kinda boxy twin white cars at 54:05 are very rare Rolls Royce Camargue models - less than about 500 made back in the mid-1970s. They are the only Rolls models designed by Pininfarina.
“FREE DAVID” … A lot of nice sedans but I need a van. I have a dog and she’s a big girl … need the space so she can relax comfortably. She loves LONG rides! Plus my parents are in their mid 80’s, need the double sliding doors and the Bravo is perfect height to easily get in and out of … thanks for sharing the stuff that’s available in Japan … great education for us folks!

That vintage hijet with the brown leather interior would be sick painted olive green. My buddy used to have a Volkswagen beetle in that color scheme. The seats pop on green.
55:51--that is a red lancia delta HF integrale EVO. Just like the evo 190E Mercedes it was a homologation street car for the rally WRC racing series. It's AWD. Turbo 4 cylinder engine. 207hp 0-60 in 6.4 seconds. they sell for $40,000 to $90,000 according to bring a trailer website. The 1991 was the evo 1 with a larger turbo. The evo 2 came out in 1993 it had slightly more power and 16 inch wheels. But looked mostly the same as a evo 1.
@@Waybeforethefamestill watching for over an hour. Thanks dude. I was gonna chip in and tell you that yeah this car is ultra special in Rally circles.
I’m enjoying the videos you are putting out on TH-cam. Enjoy seeing all the different kei cars available. Have you thought of a doing video of showing the process of getting a kei car into the USA and what’s involved with getting it legal to use on the road?
Loving the Japan trip! Please more Mitsuokas, if you can. I can't wait till the Nouera becomes legal in the US. I love the crazy fronts. Also, how cheap can you get a Midget II cargo (with rear cargo) at auction? Must have AC and prefer automatic (I'm a heretic). Midget II's are so popular and expensive.
MCM were.talking about the auction lots in Japan and apparently due to lack of parking some people find it worth it to park their cars at auctions with a minimum that says they don't want to sell they are just holding it there. That may be what's up with all the cars that you have to ask about the keys.
Both nbox & nvan has slide doors. Nvan use for cargo & offroad bikes but nbox r normal Daily use cars with more options in custom grade & also comes with a tons of features than Nvan. Nvan = hijet cargo van Nbox = Spacia, Atrai , Every
Welcome to the treasure hunt. If the first number of the smallest number on the license plate is 4, it is a freight car with a bench seat in the back, and if it is 5, it is a passenger car with a comfortable seat.
Here's my take on rust @28:00 If that area is the ONLY rust... and the rest of the shell is cherry, it's a go. Are those body on frame? If they are, even moreso OK. If not, still OK because it's a "jeep" bodystyle (meaning someone will be willing to hack off that whole area to add flares anyways!)
Looks like you can use your own west coast wearhouse somewhere to keep/sell all these JDM cars. Save your self a alot of shipping💵 $$. And time. If you lived on the west coast would you get your hands on cars shipped from Japan sooner than New York? Seems that way.
At 40:05 that’s not a Renault, it’s a Toyota WiLL VI. It’s supposed to be a “lifestyle” car that was aimed at young people and there are other things you could buy under the WiLL brand name like beer, washing machines, refrigerators, bicycles, air fresheners, candy, and all sorts of junk. Should be import legal to the US later this year. To be fair, the funky rear window styling does sort of look like a Renault Avantime.
51:42--- OH MAN!! That is a 1991 black mercedes 190E 2.5-16 evolution 2. Eather thats a regular 190E turned into a replica evo 2 or if its the real deal they only made 500 of these! The real deal sells from $180,000 (probably worn out) to $544,000 for a mint version. They made these mercedes as a homologation model ( racing rules state you hafta make so many street versions to be able to race this car) for the german touring car racing series. (called DTM series) this car should have the 2.5 liter four valve cosworth cylinder head 4 cylinder engine. The altimate version of this engine made 232hp. This german rocket is in the grand turismo 5 and 6 video game. That one doesn't have the orginal wheels bolted on it. Theres you tube video of these cars racing in the DTM series in germany.
Next to the Trans am a Silver Porsche built E500.Merc , good luck getting an Lancia Evo intergrale for $50,000 they start at around £60 grand sterling for a decent 1 with really good 1s now over £100,000 . The Red AE86 last year in the UK a low mileage A reg 84 1 lady owner sold for £47,000. Ive recently found out the cheapest brand new pick up is the Diahatsu jumbo cab. Ive only seen them in green & only in jumbo cab.
Have you done a video on the complete process of buying a car in japan, finding someone to ship it, how the car gets from the auction to the shipping container or put on a boat and does the the boat go thru the Panama canal to get to where ever you pick up the car and the process of going thru customs picking up the car. I think it would be a interesting video if you haven't done that yet.
i drove a classic atria before it was so mushy you couldnt go over a rail road track hardly. the guy selling it said most classic vans have this type of suspension its part of the classic. so beware with classics unless you drive it first.
@@Waybeforethefame i saw another video where a guy drove a classic but didnt buy it cause the suspension was so mushy. i think it was you. not sure so many videos
@@Waybeforethefame My bad Nic, I should have offered a solution as opposed to just complaining, so here is a suggestion. Perhaps, one segment of you and the guys in the buying (inspecting, rating and passing your list the the bidding staff). Segment two, perhaps, showing cool Kei's that are not often seen! Then Segment three, perhaps, could be the future Kei's! Things that are not import legal yet/newer stuff, the future of Kei's! What they have today in Japan, 'new car features/tech' that we see in the U.S. vehicles currently. All just suggestions, Your channel, as you see it! I just want to support Kei content, I have a Kei and enjoy the info, the different perspectives and the people! Hope all this gives you ideas for future content! All the best!!!

Would it b possible to share where is this auction?
Where do you get parts here in the US when something goes wrong?
It’s in Japan
@Waybeforethefame Thank you I get it. Where in Japan? The name of the Auction
That Honda Street V @4:00 is for sale near me! That's crazy!
Full circle moment
You guys ever see any Honda Accord Aerodecks?
That small exhaust is for the diesel heater.
That orange porsche was wicked and that Lancia
RWB is something special
Was that an olive green every with a utility rack on top....(when you were looking at the teal and bamboo truck)?
Yeah it was new model

Perfect timing I just got home 😂
Get comfortable!
Do they sell the kitchen kei food trucks there at the auction too. ❤
They do but I haven't seen any yet
I like the every w/ dual screens
BALLER!!!!
Looks like you can use your own west coast wearhouse somewhere to keep/sell all these JDM cars. Save your self a alot of shipping💵 $$. And time. If you lived on the west coast would you get your hands on cars shipped from Japan sooner than New York? Seems that way.
its cheaper to just send to NYC and even storage in Japan worse case scenario
I know they're not KEI but, you should check out the Mitsubishi Jeeps.
love all this goodness
