About

Welcome to Jimports. I’m James Reeves, and some of you may already know me from TFBTV (The Firearm Blog TV). Growing up with my dad, Jim, meant that cars and guns were just part of everyday life. Ol' Thunder Jim had a passion for both, and that rubbed off on me in the best way. Here on Jimports, I’m diving into the world of cars—everything from JDM legends to American muscle, off-road trucks and SUVs, and anything in between. If you're here for unique car culture, rare finds, and real automotive adventures, you’re in the right place. Hit that subscribe button and join me on this journey. Let’s explore the world of cars together, one week at a time.

Video Description

Thinking about buying a classic Porsche 911? We've got you covered. Nathan Merz, the Chair of Valuation for Porsche Club of America, has seen more used and classic Porsches than almost anyone in the U.S., and in this in-depth conversation, he shares decades of wisdom. Whether you’re considering a 964, 993, or something even older like a G-model or Super Carrera, this is the ultimate buyer’s guide for anyone looking to get it right the first time. From red flags to hidden gems, Nathan covers it all. *Note: While the car shown at 3:53 is actually a 1966 912, it is representative of an early SWB 911.
