There are 4th gen 4runners available but the problem is that they have over 250,000+ kms on the motor and chassis at a price I don't find reasonable even though these cars can do over 400k kms no problems at all, also the rust on most North American vehicles, I also wasn't looking for a v6 or a v8 unless I was planning to tow a vehicle.
My reason for importing a vehicle from Japan is simple as this, a lot of import vehicles have little to no rust on the chassis (depends on the vehicle), very low kms, very cheap to import (depends on the vehicle), Japan has auction sites that inspects the vehicle and gives it a auction grade, my vehicle is a auction grade 3.5 with interior D exterior C, with correct kms (I have a picture of the vehicle in auction), if the kms were change on the vehicle it would have a ($) or (*) next to the kms, I had a importer company got someone to check the undercarriage and any sort of fluid leaks (I've imported vehicles with this company before so I wasn't worry). I just prefer Right Hand Drive overall then Left Hand Drive vehicles.
