At the first time I doubt "Cadillac Brougham"  , but I later checked that it's impossible to be this model at that year...... |

Not common in Hong Kong, because it's American car. |

In the US they were pretty common for years. They are rarer now because the styling was a bit controversial and a lot of people disliked it, so fewer were saved. The boxy previous generation models survived better and are still found in decent supply today. I would be very surprised if any old American cars are still surviving in HK.It seems most or all remaining classic/old cars there are European sports and luxury models. |

As I know, nearly no American cars are reserved in Hong Kong: These're not popular among Hong Kong people. Hong Kong people nowadays like collecting Japanese cars. They're deeply influenced by "Initial D". This Hong Kong movie also had Cadillac shown, but I see it's not the collection of anyone: /vehicle_620206-Cadillac.html |

I Really like Japanese Cars Just like in the Philippines there is also a Toyota MR2/Celica,Nissan GT-R AND OTHER JDM Market that can import and convert into left hand drive in the Philippines. -- Last edit: 2013-08-29 10:46:51 (G-MANN) |

With what I'm told, there's a "chop-chop" market in the Philippines where cars are dismantled, shipped into the country in pieces, then reassembled. I think its a way for dealers to bypass the increasingly strict importation laws. -- Last edit: 2013-08-29 10:46:30 (G-MANN) |

That's true.. boatload of JDM-spec vehicles, often passenger vans and MPVs are shipped to the Philippines very often from Japan. Subic Bay specializes this. Though not all of the cars sent are cut-up to avoid paying large amount of taxes. But this also happens a lot. Cars that arrived are stripped and the roofs were cut. Then they are brought into local body shops so they can be reattached and converted into LHD. RHD cars are illegal to drive in the Philippine roads. Before they paint them, you can see traces of the weld on a, b, c and d pillars. It is also a bit unusual that many US made passenger vans, often Dodge Ram Vans and Chevy Vans, SUV's and also some European cars are being shipped in the Philippines from Japan along with the pre-owned Japanese cars -- Last edit: 2013-09-04 17:48:18 |
