Kim Jong Un waves from his car
Kim Jong Un waves from his car in Lang Son, Vietnam, in February 2019. We don't think this one is a Lexus.
  • Japanese police raided a car dealership suspected of trying to smuggle a Lexus into North Korea.
  • Kim Jong Un is a fan of luxury cars and has recently been spotted in a Lexus and a Maybach.
  • International sanctions ban importing luxury cars into North Korea.

Police raided a used-car dealership in Chiba, Japan, suspecting it of trying to illegally smuggle a Lexus to North Korea.

The Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun was the first to report the raid, which took place last Thursday.
