A group of guys got a chance to visit a mechanic’s private car collection full of classic Japanese cars, and honestly, it was more like a gold mine.

It wasn’t a small collection, either, but houses several dozens — if not hundreds of icons.

Moreover, these were all JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) vehicles, which only added to the rarity.

So, what did they find?

Guys find secret stash of iconic Japanese cars

The guys from the YouTube channel called juiceboxforyou visited a secret stash in the United States, and seeing the cars in there would only make you wonder how the owner even managed to source them.

The team posted a video showing several rides and shared their history, too.

When you think of classic JDM cars, your mind might instantly go toward Supra models or even some Nissan ones.

This secret collection did include those, but that’s only scratching the surface.

You see, every item in this collection has a history in Japanese car culture, with each model having thousands of fans.

Some of these were quite old, too.

The hosts shared the story of a Kei-powered Nissan S15 Silvia — which was once a superstar driven by iconic names in racing history.

Not just any private collection

Moreover, this S15, along with many other models, has been through many restorations and swaps to be in pristine condition today.

The hosts also showed a couple of historical Toyota Supra models and some fan favorites, including a triple-rotary 20B RX3, a Signal Auto 1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R R34, and another shiny Kids Heart R234.

Oh, and did we mention an entire mini-collection of Ferraris?

Most of these names might not ring a bell for most people but they were actually praised by fans worldwide back in the day.

It’s quite remarkable to see these cars in excellent condition today, which is rare these days.

We have seen our fair share of abandoned car dealerships or barn finds with cars left rotting away.

The owner of this collection certainly spent a lot of time curating this because it couldn’t have been an easy task.

Moreover, the value of these Japanese cars could easily be well above six figures because of their history and the rarity factor.

It is indeed a gold mine and a pleasurable sight for those who know about these cars.
