The answer is NO for the most part importing most cars from japan is not worth the trouble. And if you dont go through the right importer, you will pay lots of money and have a car in japan. Cause when it gets to the USof A the port authority will send it RIGHT back after it fails all of the emissions and such tests. Or worse they will send it to be crushed. Unless you want something really rare not found in the US and you have 30-60K to blow on a car then by all means you can hunt around I am sure you will find someone to import it. But unless that answer is no, then just look around on autotrader, ebay or any of the hundreds of other car sites on the web. You might find what your looking for there.
