karoomay ◊ 2012-05-21 05:00	I know, that's why I said Samurai with a question mark because I am aware the 1st MY for it was 1986 in the U.S. Maybe it's a SJ410 from Japan since the show was filmed Hawaii? I'm not sure, maybe tonkatracker can help with this one.

karoomay ◊ 2012-05-21 06:58	Ah, I see

night cub ◊ 2015-06-19 23:11	Same episode
BrentMosher420 ◊ 2015-06-19 23:19	Was it changed to Samurai in Hawaii in 1984 like in Canada, or did it remain SJ410 throughout it's entire run? Also, did Hawaii get the SJ413 as early as 1985 (like in Canada), or did they have to wait until 1986 (like in the mainland US)? -- Last edit: 2015-06-19 23:21:04
Baube ◊ 2015-06-19 23:25	i don't have the answer to that question, my books are mostly covering cars available in Canada with some few exceptions like the Starion and other Mitsubishi products because they were here by Chrysler ( well, the Starion wasn't sold here but it is mentionned in the books ). maybe they kept it like this until 1986 when it became available all across US as the Samurai
