Japanese Domestic Market
JDM Market Hub
The US 25-year rule turns every calendar year into a new wave of import-eligible Japanese icons — 2026 opens the door to 2001 production, including some of the most sought-after JDM cars ever built. This hub collects everything we track for buyers and importers: real price data, eligibility calendars, cost estimation and auction sheet literacy.

Import Eligibility Tracker

Auction Grades Explained
What S, 5, 4.5, 4, R and RA actually mean on a Japanese auction sheet — and where the traps are.
The 25-year wave, year by year
US import eligibility is calendar-driven: a car becomes legal 25 years after manufacture. See which models unlock each year.
