Today's Finds - April 10th, 2024

Joshua here,

Let me know if there is a specific car or car type you’d like to see in future emails. I’ll do my best to keep an eye out for them and include them.

Now, let’s get into it!⚡

1995 Mitsubishi Pajero Mini

~100,000 miles, manual, 4wd, 4-cylinder, turbo, rhd

This is by far one of my favorite Japanese imports. It’s a small, great-looking, turbocharged, off-road capable machine.

1974 Datsun B210

~89,000 miles, manual, rwd, 4-cylinder

Alright, hear me out. I don’t like these wheels. BUT, the original wheels are available with the sale and at that point, I think this would be an awesome car.

1994 Toyota RAV4

~106,000 miles, automatic, 4wd, 4-cylinder, rhd

A lot of the time when these Japanese imports are listed for sale they mention using them for rural mail delivery. That would be great but I also think having a right hand for a daily would be awesome.

1979 Plymouth Horizon

~80,000 miles, automatic, fwd, 4-cylinder

These older, now obscure, little hatchbacks are awesome. They’re light and look great. I’d drive this as is but some more power in it would be perfect.

1992 Jeep Cherokee

~212,000 miles, automatic, 4wd, 6-cylinder

Great looking, straight-bodied Cherokee. Set up to be, as the owner states, an “off-road monster”.

1999 Subaru Sambar

~26,000 miles, manual, 4wd, 4-cylinder, rhd

For those of you who don’t know, to have a Japanese import be street legal it has to be 25 years old. This is the newest body style of Sambar that just became street-legal in America this year.
