    @mydogzty FOB means Free On Board – the seller pays for getting the product to the shipping, you on the otherhand pay for the shipping and the delivery to you. there is also CIF wich means Cost, Insurance and Freight. there the seller pays for the delivery to the ship, the shipping, but you pay for the shipping from the ship to your house.

    @steezymack88 180SX tends to come with a SR20DE engine in Japan. The 240SX sold in America usually comes with a KA24DE engine and everywhere else in Europe comes with a CA18DE engine known as a 200SX.

    Hows come car companies all dropped all of their sport coupe lines in the late 90′s and early 2000′s? More important, why did everyone drop rwd for sports cars? All i see is fwd shit and i dont want it.

    When they’re showing the Import Cost Guide list
    What does  vehicle (FOB) mean and import Duty and GST (15% x FOB) mean? mainly the (FOB) bit mean?
    I understand that the blue slip could cost is variable, but anyidea how it could cost $3500?
    I’d love to drive a s15 as my daily driver car thats street racer looking, but would be so clean and stealthy.
    Please reply……im a curious teenager. Cars are my passion.
