One word. “Yokohama”.

One man’s crack pipe is another man’s meth pipe. You’re both on drugs, so who cares about money anyway

USS Auctions sell cars to both domestic and foreign buyers, with over 10 locations across Japan. The biggest of these is the USS Noda location.

Nice pictures of nice cars at an auction site, but not a single comparative price? Like how much do they cost there compared to what a JDM exporter charges for similar cars

who keeps thousands of cars so spotless?

Scrolling through internally saying: “want, want, want, would have, want, want, want, want, want, would have, want, want, want, want”.
