  • @pulsed13

    I really hate it that right-hand drive vehicles are illegal here in the Philippines. That's why you have the added cost of not just importing them (which might have eliminated the "savings" of getting them at an auction in Japan), but also converting them to left-hand drive...especially if it was a car that was never available in LHD.
    Heck even used buses and trucks from Japan undergo that conversion LOL

    I went and looked at a 2004 Lexus IS with a factory 2jz for 6,500 US today (Altezza at 2min24) and it struck me as kind of small inside, with my left leg pushed into the door, on the US left hand drive model. This car might not be very comfortable for anyone over 5 foot 8 in, and I couldn't drive it like that all the time. The finish needed a lot of work too. They coated the dash in some models with a substance that makes them shine and become sticky in the sun. The one I looked at had it a little, and there was a lot of paint and finish deterioration in places.
