wow... search RS dude...

fyi..
there are less and less places importing cars now with taxes up the ass..
there are still many places in richmond but if your into a specific one, then its even harder..

your best bet is private sales...

Taxes do rape on the most part ... Not to mention the US/Canada exchange rate with Yen isn't that good anymore when buying cars.

e-mail fraservalleyimports@gmail.com , one of the best around for importing I think.

or find yourself a broker in japan, but that still would leave you with all the import work. Depends how knowledgable you bringing a car in, I mean I could do it myself no biggy since I imported a mk4 and know the whole process.
