You know the Honda Civic. But this isn't the Civic most Americans grew up with.

This is a 1998 Honda Civic VTi Hatchback, a right-hand-drive Japanese-market example from an era when Honda built some of its most memorable cars.

Lightweight, unmistakable '90s Honda styling, and the kind of driving experience that made these Civics legendary.

Sometimes the cars we never got are the ones worth talking about.

Toyota built the Origin in 2000, but you'd never guess it by looking at it.

With its retro styling, coach doors and Toyota's 3.0L 2JZ-GE under the hood, the Origin is unlike almost anything else Toyota was building at the time.

Exactly 1,073 were produced.

This car shouldn’t exist.

Honda stopped selling the CRX in America after 1991. But in Japan, the CRX continued into 1992.
This is a 1992 Honda CRX 1.5X — dual carburetors, 5-speed manual, 62,112 verified original miles, and a Grade 4.5 auction rating.

A CRX America never got.

You know the Lexus SC430. But do you know the Toyota version?

In Japan, this was the Toyota Soarer 430 SCV.

4.3L V8. Rear-wheel drive. Power retractable hardtop. And this one has just 26,000 verified original miles.

Same familiar shape, but with a Toyota badge and a name most people in America have probably never seen.
