Smart buyer checklist

Treat this as two groups. Required items protect you from payment loss and fraud — if a seller resists any of them, walk away. Ideal items help you assess the car's condition; when one is missing, factor it into your risk and your offer rather than treating it as automatic fraud.

Requiredfraud and payment-loss prevention

  • Confirm title status. Clean, salvage, rebuilt, or no title — and the title's jurisdiction — should be clear before you wire.
  • Confirm the car is importable to your location. That's your homework, not the seller's; if the import path is unclear, step back and verify before paying.
  • Read the bill of sale before you wire. "As-is" with no warranty is normal; anything that removes inspection or payment protections is a red flag.
  • Use a third-party escrow service; never wire to a personal account. For dealer sales, a wire to the business account named on the invoice is normal; for private-party sales, use escrow.

Idealvehicle-condition diligence; factor missing items into risk and price

  • Ask for the export certificate. If the car was exported from Japan recently, the deregistration document can help confirm provenance and timing.If unavailable: certificates for older imports are often filed away, so absence is a risk signal, not automatic fraud.
  • Ask for underbody, engine bay, and rear-quarter photos. Those areas reveal rust and repair work that hero shots can hide.If unavailable: the car may still be in transit or storage; review existing media and ask for fresh shots once it's accessible.
  • Consider a third-party pre-purchase inspection (PPI). A specialist inspection can catch issues that change the price.If unavailable: a PPI is often not feasible while the car is still overseas, so price the added uncertainty instead of treating it as proof of fraud.

perfect, we will be fully painting the car ABOUT THIS VEHICLE The car was sold to a customer in Florida. Customer found himself too busy to enjoy the car, and after a few years of ownership, he decided to sell the car. So we bought it back! The paint was damaged so we brought the car to a local bodyshop to fix the paint. But instead of fixing the paint they really screwed up the paint badly by using some cheap paint that was bubbling and peeling and just very bad! The bodyshop was going out of business because they had very bad drug addict employees and they weren't paying their shop rent. The bodyshops landlord locked all the doors and the Celica was locked inside!!! Had to call the police to get the car back, and when we finally got the car back we found out that the drug addict employees stole the turbo, exhaust manifold (header) and the catalitic converter!! So we had to buy a brand new exhaust manifold and new catalitic converter from japan, and we bought a new aftermarket upgraded turbo from here in the USA. Also the oil feed lines for the turbo were badly damaged so we bought new upgraded oil feel lines. We also fully repainted the car by professionally removing all the old paint which took almost a month alone just to remove all of the bad paint. This vehicle has a very crazy interesting story, but it all worked out in the end thanks to our hard work!!! FINANCING Traditional banks typically will not allow financing for any vehicle older than 10 years old. For this reason most banks will not do auto loan for a JDM car. PLUS the fact that JDM cars vin number are NOT 17digits which makes banks nervous! We recommend using a collector car financing company like one of the three mentioned below. To be approved you will need to have proof of employment for at least 6 months, have good credit history (helps if you financed a car before). You will need at least 680 credit score and at least 15% down payment.
