Dude!!! This reminds me of way back in the day.... over in Stanton back in 2005 I would take my 350z to Super Autobacs... had a big car meet up there then cruise... but man your video today reminded me of me going to car meets back in those days... I guess super autobacs didn't last here... but it was a DOPE STORE!!! Cool video!
I wonder how long this place would last. There use to be a super autobacs in California around the San Gabriel area, but it only lasted for a couple of years.
There was also Alta the Japanese tires store from Japan and also RRRgame another Japanese car parts store that opened up in SoCal around the 2000s, but they all went belly up.
Hope it will last, I think the business model of selling used parts will work but I guess it comes down to the resale price. I went to that Super Autobacs! It was on Beach here in the OC. It was pretty cool but since I was just out of highschool I did not have money to buy anything so I would just look around haha. Cool spot
The California economy is probably the biggest factor. People still modify their cars here. To your point, the police gave out lots of citations at the Grand Opening Event. It was crazy, I missed most of it because I was in line to get in
No old school Honda civics think we could sell our SI factory wheels for tens of dollars and have enough for a 15 dollar Carney asada burrito here in PHX
Mark-Up Garage is a bit much... then again i understand with it being in CA and shipping containers from their japan stores... but if pricing stays that way we'd be lucky if it stays open for a year... i think setting up in CA was a bad move for them they should of set up shop in a cheaper state/city
@@joshchaides Your videos are very good content and we would love to have your videos translated into Japanese and reposted on our channel. We want to know what kind of store UP GARAGE USA is and how the local JDM lovers react to it. If OK, please reply to this message.
Ok! Yes for this video. It would be an honor. Let me know if there is another video you want as well. Thank you 😊 ! Just include my RUclips and Instagram username @joshchaides, I am still a small channel, trying to grow haha
I’m l listening to donut media the big three they’re talking about it. They said the launch didn’t go smoothly because the cops knew about it and pulled a bunch of people over state ref and tickets smh
So basically the prices are tripled lol
😢
😢
Most people walked in and saw the prices and went straight to window shopping
🙋♂️
Thanks for the video. Up Garage with California pricing.
No problem! 😁

Definitely! I went a few times. I miss it. I would browse around for a while but not buy anything...maybe that was the problem haha
Haha i was one of the workers at pipeline pizza that started that meet. Those were the days.
@@scotttak "find another way home Pizza Boy!" 😂
@@joshchaides haha. I wonder if they'd let me through since i delivered pizza in my s13 lol.
I'll never forget the "Free ride in a police car.. If you are caught shoplifting from this store" signs they had in there.
So it's basically Super Autobacs all over again, with even higher prices?? Don't fall for it folks. Have your stuff shipped over.
gotta have that TJ hunt money for those RX-7 seats lol
Yup 😂
Rename it mark up garage.

Or somewhere in the OC.

Never been to Alta or RRRgame. That would have been cool 😎
The first North American Super Autobacs was just down the road from this location on Beach Blvd.
Up Garage USA: Used parts, priced like brand new!!
Pretty much, hope the items that are sold to that shop have a decent resale price
Why an Up Garage in the state that doesn't allow car modifications??
The California economy is probably the biggest factor. People still modify their cars here. To your point, the police gave out lots of citations at the Grand Opening Event. It was crazy, I missed most of it because I was in line to get in
They are charging basically brand new pricing on 2nd hand crap
Go and pay way to much for used car parts, but when you go to up garage in Japan it’s affordable n reasonable prices.
Greedy Capitalism
California is both the best and worst place to set up shop for them.
💯

Not Japan prices for sure...
😢
I wonder if you can sell your old parts at that branch?
You can and they are offering a 10% bonus for the next month which is pretty cool 😎
Hope people don’t ruin this opportunity. I can see people trying to run off with parts.
At thease prices there not gunna stay open might as well walk out with what you can
I hope not as well
That's how I feel about any establishment in the state of California unfortunately
@@joshchaideswith those prices they doors gonna close
With these prices, can’t wait for the “shop closing down clearance.”
Great video!!
Thank you! 😊
wow
Show the car air freshener…
Is it UP GARAGE OR MARKUP GARAGE?
Thx:D
Thanks for opening up in the US! I am looking forward to my next visit sometime soon! 😀

19k for some seats 🙃
Seriously 😑. I wish I would have touched them haha
With those prices 2x and 3x are they even gonna stay in business
I have read that they plan to make most of their sales through stuff that are sold and resold to that location. Hope it works!
Looks like normal Australian prices 😅
😲 wow

Yup, it was a crazy night. People were acting respectful but were targeted for sure. 😔
Prices aren't that bad
20k for new Recaro’s isn’t that bad 😂
I’ll just buy when I’m in japan😂
Bring me stuff too please haha
What did you expect, Japanese price?
I believe everyone was just hoping, like me but lots of things to consider when making their prices 😢
Wtf is this honda brakes for 1100$$😂
That's damn near new parts pricing. It's wild they overcharging like crazy
Base on those prices I'll give it about 2yrs until they file for chapter 11 Bankruptcy
😢
These prices are bullshit
They should of called the American version of Up Garage, Up the Price 😂 gotta tax Americans I guess
Bro washed his car and still looks the same… paint messed up 😂
Haha 😂! Hopefully I will get it painted soon. It's expensive 🫠
@@joshchaides just messing with you bro. I love your car! Keep it up and in no time you’ll have it freshly painted
@@BMFFRESH naw it was funny, it really made me laugh out loud haha 😂. Thanks man
20k for some seats hahahha they’re tripping , i rather buy another car for that price
Pretty crazy how expensive they are
