#RadRide at auction today! #KeiTruck Sunday edition! I always love when these are brightly colored, and this 99 Subaru Sambar is killing it in orange! 4WD, 5-speed MT, A/C and faux wood decals on the doors? Total chef's kiss moment. DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! Not about to forget about these, especially when there's an 02 Isuzu Begin up for grabs! This one is full-on Ice Cream truck mode, so it'll be worth waiting a few months to legality for it! Want to start a business? Here's your chance! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide for sale today! We grabbed a bunch of goodies last night at auction and now they're ready for a forever home! First up is this 01 Honda Fit!

#RadRide Mastodon-exclusive bonus feature for all of you #weirdcarmastodon folks out there! This is a 1980 Isuzu 117 Coupe, a wild and relatively unknown #JDM ride designed by the legend himself, Giorgetto Giugiaro. In production from 68-81, this represents the last generation of it and that blue underlines so many good design cues. It's got a 1.98L DOHC I4 paired to a 5-speed with a blissfully period interior. This one's up Monday night CDT, so ping me if you want to bid! Just 15k kms!

#RadRide at auction today bonus feature! Here's one that's seen a lot of attention: An 00 Toyota Crown Estate Athlete G! If you want one heck of a full-size wagon with a 1JZ under the hood and a plush interior that'll go forever? This is your critter! Needs an oil leak addressed but at 135k there's multiple lifetimes ahead in this car! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! If you're a fan of weird things, look no further than the 96 Daihatsu Midjet II! This 1-seat kei truck was designed as an urban runner, beloved by bartenders in cities for running kegs! Sure it's slow, but it's been converted to a 5-speed for that extra gearing! (These all came either 4-speed MT or 3-speed AT!) DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! One more for the future category, as these are rapidly coming up on legality! If you want to grab an 02 Daihatsu Copen, now might be the time to start looking and secure a perfect example for next spring! Like this good one, for example! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! Feeling a bit futuristic today, so here's a pair of cars that are just a few months away from legality: You could be the first in the US to own one! Like this 02 Toyota Will Cypha! The eventual underpinnings of the Scion xA sold in the US (the Ist in Japan), this hatch is uniquely styled, to say the least! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today bonus feature! Speaking of cars we got here in the US that are better in Japan, check out this 00 Honda Accord Wagon! The #JDM version had sleeker lines with that huge greenhouse out back and a 2.3L VTEC engine under the hood for a ton of fun! DM for interest or to bid!

#RadRide at auction today! We're back with the finest vehicles you can buy at auction in Japan! Obon has passed, so let's get back in with this 01 Nissan Cima! Sold in the US as the Q45 (great news for anyone worried about finding parts domestically), this has a 4.5L V8 under the hood and tons of luxury features! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide for sale today! #KeiTruck Sunday edition! Have you ever wanted a pint-sized Tonka truck of your very own? A little 4-speed, 4WD, yellow critter to have a blast with, do truckstuff and shows in equal parts? Here's your 93 Mitsubishi Minicab! DM for interest or to buy! $5500 shipped! #JDM

#RadRide for sale today! The 92 Mitsubishi Minica Toppo QT is an absolute anomaly. Fewer than 10 were produced as far as I can tell, with a canvas top, spoiler and a turbo-charged engine paired to a 3-speed AT. What's normally an odd car with a high roof is made into something truly wild! DM for interest or to buy! $7600 shipped! #JDM #weirdcarmastodon

#RadRide for sale today! Why stop at just one cool blue Pike Factory car when we can have two? Here's a 90 Nissan Pao that's been wonderfully repainted and reupholstered with just 114k kms on the odo. One of our all-time #JDM faves, these are utter joys to have & drive! DM for interest or to buy!

#RadRide for sale today! The Pike Factory produced some absolute top-tier legends of #JDM car culture, but this 90 Nissan S-Cargo is without question the most overlooked of the quartet. The Figaro, Pao and Be-1 might be more iconic, but as a quirky daily or business vehicle, this one cannot be beat! This one's been customized with wheels, paint and a steering wheel and cannot be forgotten! Especially with that retractable canvas roof! DM for interest or to buy! $9400 Shipped to the US!

#RadRide for sale today! Here's another dazzling little hot hatch that we rarely see at auction: A 94 Mitsubishi Minica Dangan! Meaning bullet in Japanese, this 20-valve, turbo-charged, 5-speed, 4WD kei beast is ready to throw you into corners and carve up the backroads! DM for interest or to buy! #JDM

#RadRide for sale today! One of the things I love about private listings is the ability to find stunning classic rarities like this 67 Hino Contessa! Derived from the Renault 4CV, this rear-engine, air-cooled, 4-speed column MT sedan drips with style inside and out. DM for interest or to buy! #JDM

#RadRide for sale today! There's plenty up for sale in Japan still, so let's check private listings! This 01 Subaru Sambar Dias Classic Wagon is FULLY set up to be a rolling business! Cedar interior, twin sinks, serving window all for $9900 shipped to a US port! Want to do coffee? Smoothies? Dumplings!? This has you covered! DM for interest or to buy! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! Sure, JAPAN is closed, but AUSTRALIA is wide open! Here's one for the ute fans: A 74 Ford Falcon XB500! This rare example also comes with an unusual feature for the Aussi enthusiast market: A 5-speed manual! Want to own a 1 of 1 in the US? DM for interest or to bid! #ADM

#RadRide at auction today bonus feature! Last one before we move into private listings week, so if you want a 21k km 98 Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution, now's the time! This 12-time Dakar-winning off-road beast is a guaranteed good time wherever it goes! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! Last day for auctions until 8/17 thanks to the Obon holiday so here's two icons! First up is a 91 Nissan Figaro! If you want a car that'll turn every head it passes and don't need to get anywhere fast, this is the drop-top cruiser for you! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! The Nissan Cube was one heck of a quirky car we got here in the US, but believe it or not (I'd imagine most of you Weird Autos folks know, but still, I cross post this thing), it was the second generation of the model. This 01 version represents the Japan-only 1st gen and is every bit as unkillable as the one we got here. This one's also impossibly clean in and out with just 30k kms on the clock, so it'll last near-forever! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! #KeiTruck Sunday edition! This 00 Subaru Sambar has everything you need in one of these awesome lil guys: 4WD on demand, A/C, a 5-speed stick and just 23k kms on the odo! Think of all the stuff you could do with it! Garden center runs, home improvement store pick-ups, yard sale splurging, cars & coffee... Endless possibilities! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today bonus feature! Only exterior pics of this 01 Honda Step Wagon but I'm pretty confident in this one being a banger. 4WD, 4-speed AT, spoiler back-up mirror and some of the coolest tail lights in vans anywhere! All with just 24k kms!! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! Running late from running around but it's worth it for THIS: An 86 Subaru Sambar! The graphics package alone is worth the price of admission but with a 5-speed stick and 4WD, this one is more than just a pretty face! Check that red interior! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM #withgraphicsontheside #weirdcarmastodon #onlyvans

#RadRide at auction today bonus feature! Here's the second legendary tuner: A 98 Subaru Impreza WRX STi Ver.4 R! Long name, but this rally beast is ready to make every drive an experience! A lightly modified dash keeps eyes on critical systems to push it to 100! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! Two super desirable tuner cars up for your enjoyment starting off with this 98 Honda Civic EK9 Type R! This one's sitting on Apexi coils, with some solid quality-of-life engine mods like a Misimoto oil cooler. That interior though is blissfully stock (and VERY red)! DM for interest or to bid! #JDM

#RadRide at auction today! The 01 Toyota Origin is one of the wildest cars they've produced to date! One of just 1073 produced, this retro classic has curved rear glass, a reverse rake c-pillar, suicide doors and the looks of a Toyopet RS Crown! It was never intended to leave Japan, even if this model was a celebration of the first Toyota sold in America. DM for interest or to bid! #JDM
