Just Imported My Daihatsu and Now I'm Low on Funds: Daihatsu Community, Help a Bro Out!

[dayl]

"Hey guys, just imported my Daihatsu and I'm in a tight spot financially. The customs fees and import duties really added up, and now I'm scraping the bottom of my wallet. Has anyone else had to deal with a Daihatsu import? What were your costs like?"

 

[dushaw]

"Haha, sounds like you just got hit with the old import shock! Have you considered selling some of your unwanted parts to recoup some funds? Maybe we can even help you find a local mechanic to give your Daihatsu a tune-up and some love."

"Hey man, what's your Daihatsu's mileage? If it's relatively low, you might be able to trade it in for a better deal on a new ride. Also, have you considered selling it privately instead of trading it in?"

"Lol sorry bro, but Daihatsu ain't exactly known for low maintenance costs. Have you considered selling some of your old parts or trading with other members on the Daihatsu subreddit? Maybe you can get some funds back that way"

"Dude, what's the plan here? You know Daihatsu's got some decent repair shops, maybe they can help you out with parts on a payment plan or something."

 

[Kiberg]

Lol, nice import, bro! What kinda mods are you looking to get done? You might want to consider joining a group buy for some cheap maintenance costs

"Dude, what happened? Did you blow all your funds on repairs? Try posting about it in the 'Budgeting for Imports' thread, might get some helpful tips from others who've been there."

"Lol same bro, happened to me too when I imported my Copen. You might wanna check with your bank about wire transfer fees and see if you can get any reimbursement. Also, don't forget to factor in import duties and taxes, that added up quick for me"
