Looks like your diligence has been rewarded with finding a gem in the world of importing vehicles!!
its been pretty awesome to find this community of people that love these little things.
Wasnt sure which to use , carsfromjapan or mitsui.....although mitsui cost a little more , its worth it considering the prep they do....thanks !
I hear ya. I put about 1k extra into the van, that I didn't have to on the truck. So that balanced it what I would have spent extra at mitsui. Either way they are both pretty good to work with. Good luck!
This is going to be my next move ! Your such a incredible person bringing us on your journey and helping/embarrassing the culture with everyone . We all share the love for these KEI trucks . And your a hige help to many for making this a reality . Been having a blast with mine for the past 2-3 weeks !
Thanks so much, i've been having a blast making them i'm glad people are enjoying them.. Now if i can just fix this death wobble in KIKI driving me crazy!
I agree with your idea for purchasing from them .
Thanks yeah they are the best.
Bought from Mitsui almost 2 years ago. Still driving my 1997 Daihatsu Atrai Liberno Turbo (two tone like the one at 14:42). The 2 front shocks were blown when I got the van, Mitsui quickly sent me some functional ones.
That's awesome! Great to hear that they took care of you on the shocks. I don't think many dealers would have done that
Thanks for sharing your Mitsui adventure! Their detailed photos, videos and their well laid out website was the biggest reason why I went with them. Their youtube channel is very active as well and I love watching all their new inventory roll in everyday. That was very nice of them to give out those custom plates because it was Black Friday sale exclusive!
Thank you, More than happy to share my experience with them. I really enjoy spotlighting people who go above and beyond. Thanks for watching
I love the look of the red one with the outboard / exterior headlights.
ha yeah I believe that is a Daihatsu Midget
mitsui is definetly getting a surprise customer when I am on my own
You won't be sorry! 😎
Love this video! Great memories! The kindness and professionalism is truly something different in Japan!
Gonna have to do a full Japan tour video
I stumbled upon your channel when looking at Kei Trucks. I love your content. I live in South Florida & wondered about the laws about owning these gem vehicles for an everyday local driving. Mitsui sounds like a great place to start looking. Thank you for posting your vids!
Hey thanks for the feedback. yeah Mitsui is awesome to work with! there are a bunch around so Florida already if you don't want to worry about the hassle :)
B9oo;Great video & really appreciated the mitsui tour/visit.
Thanks. It was really fun!
Back in 1980's I owed a Honda 600 coupe, I loved it. My motorcycle engine powered car was awesome, even with 2500 for a full rebuild of engine / transaxle. I would love as a widower to get my hands on a mini in van configuration like KIKI
Those Honda 600s are awesome. I saw a couple in Japan on my last trip there. Such cool sporty little cars!
Great video and very informative.
I used car from Japan and had a great experience. I am considering another Kei truck purchase and based on your recommendation will give Mitsui a try.
Thanks, yeah that's awesome! give them a try , 😊
I've always wanted to visit the secret yakuza controlled fishing ports where the corrupt cops arrest you for being an outsider.
Well okay then. Sounds like a interesting vacation. Try to keep your pinkies
really nice video 👍🏻
Thank you it was a very fun one to make!
Wow awsome video, I had contacted him through your link and they are fast to respond. This will be my first import car a real JDM. This video definitely helped me decide because it just seems daunting to purchase something over seas.
That's awesome to hear they really are great to work with. Good luck! Let us know how it goes
I did not see that windy beach video but the screen shots from it were priceless 😂😂
It was pretty ridiculous. One of the best memories of Japan, Amanda losing her shit trying to not blow away
I don't know why the noise the umbrellas JR was holding was SOON FUNNY but it really had me cry laughing !
super nice, cool there is one in my town now juneau ak
Ah, that's awesome to see them up in the cold bits of the country too!
Just found your channel. Freaking awesome content ty for making it! Might be taking a trip to get a car that wants to negotiate price :)
thanks for visiting and commenting! sounds like my kind of trip! :)
good luck
I would love to get a JA Sambar from them. It's nice to know that they do extra leg work.
Yeah I really can't speak highly enough they are awesome. Sambars are bad ass
@@inkandpistons Since Texas made mini trucks legal for title, if you had a service where you imported them and titled them I'd be all over it. I think I'm too scared to go through the process on my own. Keep up the videos!
@@postbreak thanks.. I think there are a couple folks in Texas doing it.. just everything gets expensive when someone else is doing it..
I just ordered my first Kei truck. Haven't got shipping details yet but I have got an invoice. I'm located in FL (using Jacksonville port) & have a question. Can I use the invoice to title the vehicle or do I need a "bill of sale". Not sure what the technical difference is
You'll probably get the bill of sale and the final invoice in the package you'll receive eventually with the title. I'm not sure which one they will require for registration.. possibly both of them. Invoice may contain stuff like shipping costs insurance etc. added in bill of sale will just be car cost . If not have them resend one . .. customs and the state SHOULD only charge tax on vehicle price not the shipping cost
@@inkandpistons Gotcha. Thank you!
@@kamaborino2400 no problem good luck. Congrats
@inkandpistons i was curious too. if you have all other paper work except bill of sale or if bill of sale is it someone else name would their be and issue registering .?
@@robbii-sanmarryshow7251 I'm not a 100% sure. If the bill of sale isn't someone else's name, you'll probably have to have them sell it over to you. With a new bill of sale
Fuckin rad video. I want to go so bad
Thanks.. I love it there it's fucking awesome
Hilariously timed - I was looking at Mitsui for the last couple of months debating on picking up a Kei van (I'm on the hunt for a 94 to 97 Daihatsu Atrai, with or without turbo) and they kept showing up with much better pricing and photos. Very responsive as well. Thanks for the video, hope you guys had a blast in Japan
That's great to hear. They are great to work with.. those Daihatsu are sick, they are usually optioned very well... good luck!
U had to go like 20 times before u wanted a k truck? Odd
Did I say that? Nah , I thought they were bad ass from the jump. Took me 6 trips to pull the trigger and get one .. wait till you see what I import next!
I find it absolutely hysterical that we import their cute little kei vehicles and they import our big 'fuck-off' muscle barges and trucks.
Ha, Right.. I guess you just want what you can't have
あんれま、わしら日本人から
すればお古と化した日本ナンバー
プレートまで海外に出せば
勲章モノかね。
ごめんなさい、私の日本語はあまり上手ではありません。ナンバープレートを保持できないということですか？
Sorry My Japanese is not that good.
Are you saying you can't keep the Number Plates?
