It’s a sad day for car enthusiasts as, last night, two dozen rare imports left this earth headed for Jalop heaven in a warehouse fire, The Drivereports. We fear that among the victims may be some classic JDM Nissan Skyline goodness.
Last night, International Vehicle Importers, a company that specializes in importing cars 25 years or older (the stupid minimum age for cars to be imported without meeting safety or emissions testing), lost 24 cars in a tragic fire in Ontario, California, the report says.
The company hasn’t said anything about which cars went down in the fire, but on their Facebook page someone asked if the N1 survived (I assume he’s referring to the Nissan Pulsar VZR N1?), and the response was “One did. Not sure about other chassis.”

In images posted to TheGentlemanRacer.com, you can clearly see at least one Skyline charred, and many other indistinguishable losses.
The import company says they’re removing the charred cars from their online inventory, and that we’ll hear more about the automotive victims soon.
On the positive side, the company says most of their cars are not in that warehouse, telling The Drive: “We lost 24 total cars, which is a small portion of what we have in the States”
