I went through Will at JDM Connection
I couldn't be happier with the car and I would recommend Will to anyone I know that's looking to import from Japan. |

| redlineimports is good if you want someone else to import for you and save the hassles. or if you have the time and patience to do it yourself check out jpctrade.com and sign up with Shinya Sento, excellent english and customer service. He stayed in contact with me untill i had my car in my driveway. |

I can also vouch for Will. He's a great guy, and will really take care of you.
Before I picked up my car too, Will had his partner detail it and shampoo the engine bay, for free, which was really awesome.
Honestly, I can't say enough good things about him.
Will at JDM has been doing this for a long time, and he has the contacts to get your car out of any trouble that might come up, so keep that in mind.
Anyone can import a car when there are no troubles. But when shit goes down, you want Will @ JDMconnection |

| I have tried a few JDM Connection was good, I'm not sure if I delt with Will but the guy was nice, I didn't really like the guy from Import Concern all that much, The guys from 4kruzn were a little too far away for my liking, but very informative dudes if you are willing to make the drive. I didn't really like Redline at all, just gave me a feeling, not sure what bugged me. The absolute worst was a place in Spruce Grove that I don't recall the name of, but the guys name was Dana and he worked with his brother who's name I forget, but they were both clowns. The place I was most comfortable was Ardent Matrix on the North side, I was just in there yesterday. I came across them by I post I had made about AMVIC and they were better than expected. It was kind of a disaster area as they are in the middle of renos right now, but the guy I talked to there made me feel really comfortable and went into a lot of detail. Also the plus side is they have access to a lot of cars that are not of the 15 year old JDM variation for some of us that want a newer car. It helps that it is uber close to my house too. The importer there has about 5 years experience and has staff in Japan so there are never a lot of "troubles". I have talked to a few people that have delt with them, they have been flying under the radar for the last couple years but I could definately see them getting HUGE in the next couple years if they actually make an effort to market, you need more than friend of a friend word of mouth advertising. The only thing I would suggest to someone looking for a car is get ATLEAST a couple months lead time on when you want the car sitting in your driveway, because all the guys from 4kruzn, JDM Connection, and Ardent Matrix said that you can't be in a hurry to get your car here once you start the import process. So if you want a car in your driveway when the snow melts you better be working on it come January. |

| I found them on this site accidently, their e-mail is ardentmatrix@gmail.com they are located on the North East Side of the city, I am not sure if the are "officially" open to the public so you might want to hit them with an e-mail. I have their phone number somewhere, but I just can't track it down at the moment. |
