Default 911 in Japan

Hello, I recently posted this in the Japanese section of the forum, but didn't get any responses. I thought I'd try it in the 911 Forum.


I'm relatively new to the forum and hoping to get some advice/recommendations to help me purchase a late 80s to early 90s 911 in Japan. I'm currently living in the Yokohama area, but speak very little Japanese. I was curious if anyone might be able to recommend an agent or dealer who speaks descent English who could help guide me through the process of buying from a dealer or an auction.


I'm also curious to know if anyone might be able to recommend a good shop for a PPI in Japan. Thanks in advance for all the help!

Hi..

I always drool at their collection here http://www.garagecurrent-global.com/

Have you checked out Japanese 911 Magazine? There are tons of ads in there, dealers, workshops, classifieds...
