How do I insure a JDM import?

Standard insurers (GEICO, Progressive) will insure imported JDM cars but often undervalue them. Agreed-value policies from specialty insurers (Hagerty, Grundy, American Collectors) let you set the insured value to reflect the true market worth. JDM cars are appreciating assets — review your coverage annually. Some states require emissions certification before registration, which affects insurability.
