Dan_Turism0 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) Hi guys, Really wanting to pop my Supra Cherry now, been looking around various import sites and Bonsai Cars seem to have good stock, but has anyone used them or any big concerns or horror stories about them? Found this little beauty this morning - http://www.auto.co.jp/system/auctiondata/a/hyoji.php5?ses_id=autosquare&basho=USS-Kyusyu&auid=701&exno=13302 Best Dan Edited March 16, 2009 by Dan_Turism0 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan_Turism0 Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Hmm thanks for the heads up, shame though as that one in my link is stunning and exactly what i'm looking for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukeyboy2k Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Hmm thanks for the heads up, shame though as that one in my link is stunning and exactly what i'm looking for My car was exactly what I wanted and a very good price, so buying from there is not necessarily a bad thing, just not as seamless as I'd have hoped for. Perhaps you could get Jurgen to look into the exact car in your link for a more tried and tested route? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_aero Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Why does the front bumper look so high? Is it missing a splitter or active spoiler - doesn't look right or balanced to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Turism0 Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 As you say it could be a removed splitter or active spoiler, but I would be changeing this anyway =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Speak to Jurgen, I'm near certain he can get you that car as Bonsai don't own it that one won't be cheap either, expect 14k+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
add heywood Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Have never had any dealings with Bonsai cars, but I'd definately recommend Jurgen @ Jm-Imports. Bought mine from him, really well looked after and spot on service. I had a small problem with the gearbox which he told me about and paid to fix himself. Top bloke who comes highly recommended from ALOT of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopite Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Jurgen all the way! You'd be in safe hands there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Turism0 Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Awesome will have a word with Jurgen for a more indepth report on the Supra I linked to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimojameso Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 A lot of guys from the 350Z site have used bonsai cars and i have read quite a few complaints. Speak to jurgen, he got mine and all smiles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supranature Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 When I was looking for my Supra, I saw a few on Autotrader website from Bonsai: every one was SOLD, yet they were still advertising them 2 weeks later! I assume they reel you in with a corker in the hope you may buy available shite. Knobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Turism0 Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Thanks guys this has helped me make my mind up, shame as the one in my link is naer enough perfect to me change the front bumper but that's about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Have never had any dealings with Bonsai cars, but I'd definately recommend Jurgen @ Jm-Imports.

Top bloke who comes highly recommended from ALOT of people. I got mine at the same time a sMr Heywood from Jurgen, he's a top bloke! The only other i'd reccomend is Paul @ whifbitz.
