Ami, a very valuable car in Japan.
→ voir la traduction de l’article
Ami 6 and Ami 8 has been imported from the 1960s until 1970.
But, in 1970, Ami 8 stopped to be imported because of a changement of law.
Regular import of Ami 6 is a France’s specification.
However, in 1969 by a law amendment, it was obliged for mounting of repeaters of indicators. Repeaters of indicators of « Koito » had to be installed and nowadays they are currently mounted on almost the Ami in Japan.

By the 2000, it was only 20 or less Ami here. Most of them are in Japan by importers and personal imports. Now, the number has increased to more than 40 vehicules, including Ami 6 berline, Ami 6 break, Ami 8 berline and break, Ami Super berline, Ami Super break, M35 and Citroen Ami 8 Familiar !).
