WootWoot... i rounded the figure since JPY fluctuates. And here's your PS to HP:

PS x 0.9863 = HP

So he has: 414.246 HP

Hope you are happy now.

It already as a hitch on the front to chain it down to the inside of the shipping container. That thing is a steal. Too bad I'd never get it off of the dock. Although I do live in Long Beach, and there has to be SOME sort of shady person I could talk to.

But oh yeah, then I have to some how get plates for it. Drat, another scheme foiled by reality.... :help

easy. you need to ship it over with the motor taken out.that way, it is considered parts.then you put it back in when it's over here.

Actually it says ‚ɂ܂¾’B‚µ‚Ä‚¢‚Ü‚¹‚ñ which translates basically as "reserve not met" That is just starting price not as seller wants. Good find tho,

Edit: sorry I thought this forum would support kanji

Nice car.. but it'd be pretty expensive just to get the whole car transported from Japan over here... at least a few thousand dollars for shipping. Documentation/legalization fees are not included. You probably won't even get anywhere near the car once it is landed.. the car will just sit at the local customs collecting dust... hehe :oface
