This 1986 Toyota Trueno GT Apex 5 speed manual was sourced from Japan for a client on 11 April 2008. It had 114,000 kms, aftermarket steering wheel, power steering, aftermarket exhaust, RECARO bucket driver’s seat, 15″ aftermarket alloys (odd set front to rear), front and rear strut braces, airpod, coilover suspension and adjustable camber set up. It was in very nice condition for its age, running well, and much better than the average example.
This vehicle cost 490,000 YEN FOB. Total price in Australia at that time would have been approx. $9,200 landed plus tyres and ORC’s (calculated at a rate of 95.11 Yen to the dollar). Allow also $1,000 to $1,200 compliance allowance on top of this price estimate.
We only source the best vehicles with clean and tidy interiors, and only vehicles we would be pleased to own ourselves. This is why we are constantly told by clients that the vehicles we source are well above the condition of most others on the local market.
Whether you’re looking for a Toyota Trueno GT Apex like this, or another year, make or model, we can find it for you in nice condition.
The pictures in this case were from an agent’s stock, when sourcing from auction we provide more pictures prior to auction for each vehicle of interest, with any faults shown so you can clearly see the condition before we discuss whether to bid, and your budget.
It is vital when sourcing your vehicle to use an agent that takes the time to physically check each vehicle and looks beyond the auction pictures and report to confirm condition. Some vehicles may have an unpleasant smoke or other odour, rust underneath, or other faults which are impossible to know without inspection.

Hi Geoff
My EVO 8 MR is on the road. I love it. Both compliance workshop and VIC Roads mechanics say it’s the cleanest EVO they’ve seen come in. Being grade 5 A and only 15,500 kms it’s in absolutely immaculate condition. I can only describe it like ‘as new’ condition. It’s far exceeded my expectations. Well done!
The car ended up costing right on the estimate so your guidance was quite accurate despite the fluctuations in our Aussie dollar. Thanks for all your support over the weeks. Now that I’m familiar with the importing process and time of wait, I wont panic next time I plan on importing again. I’ll definitely recommend you to my friends if they want to import as well :o) Overall, I’m extremely happy with the outcome, if I would have to give you feedback the only surprise I had was that it only came with one immobiliser key. However, I can just bring in the car to Mitsubishi and they should be able to fix me up with another key. These things happen, but in light of things, you’ve done a fantastic job in sourcing me a near perfect EVO 8 MR at a great price.
Cheers,
David :o)
