hey i was looking online for low mileage kizashi's and ive found a few websites that import from japan and they claim to be selling some with as little as >60,000 km mileage for as low as >8k usd....
are these scams? has anyone actually used websites like these before? like here was one i was looking at https://carfromjapan.com/cheap-used-suz ... i-for-sale
and even if this website is legit how the hell am i suppost to be expected to buy a car i cant actually look at in person, like seeing thoes prices really about to make me fly to japan fr
quick question
It might be technically legit but you won't be able to legally drive the cars in the US. The US has a 25-year import rule for non USDM vehicles. Basically, these foreign cars were not made to the specs required by the US Dept. of Transportation and other agencies thus aren't road-legal until 25 years after manufacture. Hence, even if you import a JDM Kizashi, your state DMV will not allow you to register the vehicle. In that light, it's not worth it just for parts or driving around exclusively on private property.
Also keep in mind that JDM vehicles are Right Hand Drive thus the steering wheel is on the other side. Also, JDM Kizashis were exclusively CVT models and many were sold as fleet vehicles.

Yeah, but it's tough at this point in the US and Canada as the newest of the Kizashis here are 10 years old at least. Finding one now under 100K in mileage is probably very hard.

Where is the Kizashi and where are you driving it back to?
