what would be the FOB price if i do look at getting everything totaling max 21-22k? - if i know the FOB price ill just look around for some before i make any moves for a broker, but ill definitely need one....as you can tell I'm a very hard customer very picky....very compulsive that's why the million questions and endless reading of info....plus I'm a uni student and as we all know were suck ass at making some dough for a living and struggle to get a job so 22k is a lot for me, so thanks for grunting this out with me so far and for the replies its been alot of help. ill still be searching just need that FOB price if im totaling 22k :P

thanks again guys. just been awesome

You're gonna have to find one at auction because your budget is so tight - forget looking around at dealers or other websites. as they're either cars that don't exist, or over-priced rubbish. Most of the guys on here will have access to a number of sources, none of which are available to the average internet surfer.

We all know your budget - let whichever broker you choose do the calculations in yen for you accordingly. And remember that beggars can't be choosers

[Ezy03]

kk i guess not... il save calling brokers for tomorrow, ill try to look around and yeah.

i found this one but since you said it might be gone i dunno, maybe it would cost me 23k if its 1.18mil fob, as 1mil fob would cost around 21-22k. ...

As i said before, 1.2m yen is about $26K++

There is no chance in hell that 1.18 will be 23k.. Unless the AUD:YEN gets back up to 85. You could be waiting a while.

[Ezy03]

kk well ill contact some brokers tomorrow pref on this list that have replied. ici etc..

That's pretty much what it means, yes.

[Ezy03]

anyone know if the car is p plater legal?

[Ezy03]

how possbile is it for me to get one grade 4 imported already from a dealer, with touch ups needed for body and a few adjustments needed for inside. for 22 grand?? - non premium plus nav/tv

[xscape237]

carsales.com.au

[Ezy03]

im just thinking if i ppl are saying i could get one for 22k from importing then there is the chance that i can get it for 22k from a dealer. so possible dont you think?

[Chris Rogers]

I say your are dreaming myself. a sedan - possibly - coupe - no way.

[Iron Chef]

You can't have your cake and eat it too. Dealers spend a lot of their own money bringing cars in from Japan - they're not going to give them away for the same money (or less even) it costs to import them.

hey guys big news, according to bbc

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/8058708.stm

record plunge, up to 74 , so I'm wondering my price of 22k is getting more attractive and easier to come by and my v35 is closer reach now than ever.

[Iron Chef]

Let me know when it hits 85

[Chris Rogers]

nah let me kow whne it hits 104 again. it will make my inport bills from tokyo a LOT cheaper.

Ezy03,

keep dreamin or raise some more money . $22k for a coupe ain't gonna happen unless you happen to buy a wreck.

you will find that prices in japan will go up as the exchange rate drops and buyers have more yen to play with.
