That would be Sickkkk, Are they right hand drive still? If they arnt im pretty sure there is a special permit that allows you to drive them left hand drive but very restricted...

[sammus]

they're loads cheaper from america if you can get them over here

the top camaro is beautiful though

Strange thought getting em from jap, theres heaps more in america, not that hard to find in australia either, will set u back about 30k for a decent model 69 (top pic is a 69 S/SS i think) camaro or for around $15-20k u can get a crap condition one and restore it. And yeh, there are permits that let u drive left hand drive cars (cept u have to have a gay sticker on the bumper)

[Topstage_S14]

to get one like the one in the top pic in australia it would set u back $50k, one's like that are rare as hell, i have never seen one like that in over a year of looking. the black one in the pic also has 7000cc of muscle.....

...MUUAAAAHAHAHA!

u gotta remember one from japan prob has been restored or at least looked after quite well where as one from the states is prob just a paddock basher

50 or 60k? maybe more? Mint looking car that is...

[mr_crust]

i think the blue one, being heavily worked is mid 40's

but for something more subtle it would be a lot cheaper

we've imported a few now... mainly for collectors. From the US and from japan. Although we do more corvettes than camaros.

They come in under the 1988 and prior rule. So compliance is minimal as far as mechanicals are concerned. If the car is over 30 years old you can keep it LHD and drive it on the road that way... but if its a younger car then it need to be converted to RHD, we have compliancers that can do that all for ya if need be.... albeit at a much higher price than the cost of compliance for a 30yo muscle car.

also do J-spec offer CIF or DDP terms?

or only free on board (FOB)??

Most cars are listed as FOB price because that's the more accepted industry standard however we will look after shipping and other parts of the process for you also - you can pay a CIF price if you want the car put on a ship and nothing else, but usually our clients pay FOB price up front and other costs as they are due throughout the process. If you wanted a rough quote for delivery to your door once the car lands in Australia then we can do that also.

Basically just let us know how much or how little of the process you want us to do for you and what you prefer to arrange yourself, we are very flexible.

Prices can vary a lot based on the car condition, obviously something that has been fully restored will cost a lot more than an average car that is showing it's age - you could spend anything from maybe $15,000 landed for a rough example through to $50,000 or more for something really quite stunning.
