No it's easy really.
Rent a shipping container which on average can hold two vehicles and one front end cut then ship it over. The vehicles are pretty cheap on foreign soil and the front cuts are standard wrecking yard parts. A lot of the vehicles are past the emissions legal range for countries like Japan so they just dump them instead of swapping motors.

I appreciate the advice on it though. Like I said, Ive never really been able to look into all the ins and outs of it.

Sorry to bug in guys , but i read what you guys said about Perez Wholesale Distributor , this company have been around for 25 years , my shop have been buying form them since 1996 , they have the better prices in the USA. They sell cheap because they buy in the real auction in japan , the owner is japanese, MR. Yoshi Takamoto, they sell all around the world , they dont have any intention of making a lot of money on their cars. I decided to post because i see how some people here like to talk bad about companies they dont know. I have had good experience with them and i reccomend them. Why everytime we see people selling something we want but we cant afford we have to say is a scam to make them look bad. Oh one more thing , how can you import something ilegal when you have to go thru US customs? think about it , if is ilegal it will be confiscated. Try to make sense guys dont be ignorant, just because some of you can afford a real thing you have to talk bad about someone. Sorry for my comments guys but it really bothers me. If some of you guys are young , grow up guys.

so, the drugs that cross the border is legal, because it somehow gets across? the owner's japanese... that makes him law-abiding? they run a business, yet don't want to make lots of money?

I like how you put this. im not downing the company if it is real and legit. but its true that most things that sound like the situation are scams. and chico saying people just down others because we cant afford it? Some people can, others cant. There could be a multi-millionaire looking at the site and know something is a scam. I would love to own a ferrari or 2, but just because I cant afford them doesnt make them scams.
