JDM Imported

Elusive Auto Company

The JDM Imported Podcast covers everything JDM by Elusive Auto Company, a grassroots dealership and importer of Japanese cars. This is a behind the scenes look at a dealership starting from the garage and moving into a retail space. I will be sharing the current import car market, what cars are hot, how to import, what to look for, my car inspection findings, fixes..etc. Covering the icons like the RX-7, Supra, Fairlady, Silvia, and more as well as some not so common VIP and Kei cars. It's a two way street so most questions via email or DM's will get addressed. Should be good fun.

Detailing side of the business has surpassed expectations for year 1 at the brick and mortar and on the search for a new car to import.

JDM Imported - Legal JDM cars and the RX7 FD gets paint!
play

06/06/18 • 50 min

In episode 5 I cover some anticipated cars to soon be legal in the US for importation, some that are currently, and one of my favorites that is already legal but, in my opinion, under the radar. Want a 20b 3 rotor motor with equal torque to hp numbers, timeless styling, modern interior.?....check out the Enos (mazda) Cosmo. Love this thing, and chat about it.

Also the FD in inventory get's a new paint job and I cover some interesting findings.
