They did build LHD OEM Silivias for export to LHD countries, so not every one is a hack job.
Don't think I'd want to buy one in another country without close inspection.

Before Lexus launched in Japan, I'm sure some owners would have taken their Toyota Aristo (JDM version of Lexus GS series), Harrier (RX series) or Celsior (LS series) for the USDM treatment.
Not the VTOL jet... Although if I drank more Pepsi, I'd have gotten that too. |

There was a time when you almost needed to lust after jdm cars but with global standards and cooler and cooler cars available here I just don't see the point. In high school I would have loved that but now I just see a less reliable brz competitor without the availability of parts.
