This is really cool -- I bought a used Japanese car a couple of weeks ago from www.japanesevehicles.com. It's a 2000 Corolla with about 90,000 km on it. Here's a picture:





OK, so it's not the world's fanciest car, but it was cheap. As in $2100. Can't beat them apples!

So the car was put on a boat in Yokohama, and is now steaming its way towards Pakistan. How do I know? Because, thanks to the miracle of GPS technology, I can track it, in real time. Let's just hope it doesn't sink, since I opted not to pay the extra $50 for "sinking of ship" insurance!

    That's weird. Buying a car you've never driven before... with 90K km on it?! I was just thinking about whether we could lease a car, or whether we're the wrong people entirely (two messy children + a man who cares not a wit about cars)... Maybe a used mini-van... Very sexy@!

    Hey DIH -- I thought you were going to make me a contributor to this thing! How does one go about doing it?
