Okay, now that I've gotten y'alls attention, I want to point out this site I came across when looking up the price of a Nissan Skyline GTR:

Used Cars from Japan Cars

Not sure if someone has already posted this on here, but this is a company that exports used cars from Japan. The surprising thing is, a lot of the cars they have in stock have fairly new engines (30-40km) and are still priced below 5000 USD!

Now, of course I would be cautious with any used car, but then thought of a scenario where one could import one of these beauties to India (shipping and customs would not be too high, considering that base prices are low themselves) and totally patch it up when it gets here, if that's at all necessary.

My questions:
-What do you guys think?
-Are there better alternatives for getting Japanese sport-compacts to India?
-Is my customs duty theory (above) correct? Or would one be charged as per the factory price of the imported car?

Peace!
