How are JDM cars selling within Canada

This is a discussion on How are JDM cars selling within Canada within the Canada East forums, part of the Canada category; I've read some comments in another thread that cars such as Skyline whether they are R32 or R33 are not selling well. Is this only GTS-T or GT-R as well? ...

Default How are JDM cars selling within Canada


I've read some comments in another thread that cars such as Skyline whether they are R32 or R33 are not selling well. Is this only GTS-T or GT-R as well?

Are there other vehicles that are selling worse or better?
The impression I've gotten from craigslist and kijiji in the last few months is that there are generally less cars for sale.

I was assuming that most owners were not listing their cars for sale because they are happy and don't want to sell.

Any thoughts or observations guys?

i've noticed a number of r32 gtrs for sale locally for very good prices and nobody is buying

its understandable since such cars are out of season

but man, if you want a cheap r32, nows the time to buy!

i've been looking at buying an r33 gtst for awhile now and found it to be quite the opposite. theres only a few for sale (in ontario) and most of them that i've already seen and are either 1) crap 2) overpriced or 3) overpriced crap

bottom line right now is that most people arent looking to spend more than $8000 on anything, they want GTR's for that price, and GTS-Ts for $5k..

In here whats selling right now is the Hilux 3.0L turbo diesel (Good engine) Im pretty sure evo's will sell,

im curious why jdm hondas never took off considering their popularity

i mean the attitude among the younger crowd is - the more jdm you honda is, the cooler you are.

also the fact that usdm hondas are so badly rusted with jdm motor swaps, you would think going jdm from the get-go would make so much sense

that said, i guess 16 year olds arent very logical
