Very happy to finally receive my Coaster. There is some normal wear inside and one seat could be cleaner, but these things are small. Mechanically, it has been good till now. I appreciate the support Sat provided during the whole import process.

I will be honest, my experience was not as good as I hoped. SAT Japan was able to get the car to me, but I felt the process had some problems. I wanted better communication and a smoother experience.
