    i bought my car off them but by the time it get's here you've spent a lot more than you would have if you just bought one that was already in Canada. Not worth it in my opinion

    Im pretty sure your talking about japan Direct in mississauga/Toronto?

    There car are fairly decent if they are the mnp ones though I havn't been by in a month or so. On of the body kits was really ugly in person.

    Yea Its the one in Mississauga. There asking 15000 for them. He said it has around 70 k. He told me he would give me a month warranty with it...almost the wrong time of the year for that tho. Thanks for the info

    Do not buy it sight unseen, I almost did that when I bought a Gtr because it was 3000km away, the pictures I had the car looked pristine ! Last Minute I decided il fly out and have a look even though it cost me a extra $800. When I got there the car was a complete piece of **** ! I ended up finding another one and bought it and drove it home, spent $800 but saved thousands on what it would have cost me in repairs and misc **** had I not went to look at it and just bought it. This is your dream car - dont start off with a pos project, there are way to many nice gtr's for sale right now to risk buying a lemon. My 2 cents. If that dealership takes pride in their fleet they will pay for half your flight if not all or take the cost of the price off the car if you fly out, mine did. If they won't - **** em.

    The price seems fair for a r33 Gtr, there are a few of them for sale on gtrc you could check out. Either way it's a buyers market so take your time and find a good one good luck shopping

    If you are planning to come to the Toronto area to look at the car make sure you make appointments with some of the other dealerships in the area at the same time. Also I would look in the for sale threads and check out some members cars as you may get a really good deal.

    Also how is a 1 month warranty going to work if the dealer is here and you are out east?

    Oh yeah, one more thing research, research, and more research on these cars is required before buying. The info is archived on this site which will make the search button your best friend for the next couple of weeks.

    I personally would not deal with them. I had a bad experience with them. I bought a set of spare wheels/rims and the guy assured me that they will fit. I had my doubts but since I was a bit desperate I bought them. I tried them on and of-course they didnt fit. I took them back and had to fight tooth and nail to get my money back. I kept saying I thought they wouldn't fit but your guy said they would. Long story short, I got my money back after arguing like mad. The place seemed shady when I went there and the people talked in a different language when I went back. Keep your money
