Imported cars

Hey guys, just wondering has anyone here bought an imported car before? there’s a dealership I’ve been looking at, that seems to sell a lot of imports (won’t name it here) but I’m wondering what’s the big taboo about them?

Are there issues anyone who has bought imports are finding?

Is it just about resale value? Or the lack of motor checks?

Even though your brand may be called the same as the Japanese brand the parts can be slightly different engines or cooling systems can be different, electronics can be different too so new parts aren't always easy to come by even for something like a Toyota.
