Performance Car Reviews, News and Parts for the Car Enthusiast

We all know Toyota is going through some tough times, but that doesn’t mean you have to ignore all Japanese used vehicles, or the Japanese car market at all – it still remains healthier and stronger than the American one, and we’ve rounded up 5 cars you can feel great about.

#5: Honda.

The second in the Japanese ‘big 3′, Honda is plowing ahead with its motorcycle division and a solid if not awe-inspiring line of cars for this coming decade. They consistently score high in quality rankings and their prices on Japanese used vehicles are always quite solid.

#4: Nissan.

The other one of Japan’s “big 3″ (as opposed to the American big 3), Nissan has been slightly out of the spotlight during all this recent news, having cut some jobs recently as they suffer under decreased demand. But their cars – some of the best Japanese used vehicles around – still get great resale prices..

#3: Mazda.

Although Mazda fell on some tougher times during the 1990s, they were also one of the few Japanese car companies to see great success while in business with an American one (being Ford). Now that recent years have seen them push once again towards profitability, they’re looking towards hydrogen-fueled cars into the future.

#2: Suzuki.

Don’t count out the underdogs – while they aren’t known as being one of the big 3, either (and probably aren’t even in the top 5), Suzuki has been steadily plugging along even despite the crisis in auto sales. Their Japanese used cars are nothing to sneeze at.

#1: Subaru.

Thanks to the smaller footprint that Subaru takes up in the relatively large Japanese auto market, their vehicles (including their used cars and exported cars) are still relatively valuable, and to be honest, they are one of the most forward-looking companies on our list.

No matter which requirements you have when choosing a car – Japan used cars will satisfy your needs! Be sure to check if your Japanese used car exporter is Certified by the Japan Used Motor Vehicle Exporter Association. If yes, you can expect not only a wide range of cars to choose from, but also very competitive prices and great customer support.
