Rare JC Cosmo - USA

[DMRH]

Had the good furtune of meeting Brad berger last weekend. He is the proud owner of perhaps the only legally registered rhd JC Cosmo in the USA.

At the Sevenstock rotaryfest in L.A, the crowds around his JC Cosmo was impressive to say the least. Its a real nice Type-E from 1990 (JCESE-100439 from memory)

Reminded me of 1997 all over again with my first JC Cosmo here down under. The Aussie public would crowd around it when ever I did a car show.

Brad was knocking back a few offers on it too. Reckons he wouldn't even sell it for US$50k.

Being the only one. I tend to agree with him.

Here is a pic of the beauty..........

The USA guys got a treat with both an L10 & JC Cosmo there at the same time

Brad Berger mentioned something like that but suspected that it doesn't have "legal title" hence why it can't be registered on-the-road.

Still, its a good things its there & not getting raped for the engine in Japan.

That's a gorgeous looking example. I thought that you had to crash test loads of cars to get them road legal in the US.
Obviously not the case.

Just in the last month alone (OCT-06) has Brad finally fitted the factory rear spoiler after removal of the RE-Amemiya item.
