What Sets Us Apart
What you get by importing through us rather than buying a car that is already here
Graded by someone who doesn't work for us
Every car at a Japanese auction is inspected and graded by the auction house: body, interior, mileage, accident history, on a sheet we do not write and cannot change. We send you that sheet and translate it, and if the grade is poor we tell you so.
Six to eight weeks
From the winning bid to the car in your hands. Most of that is the vessel itself, which nobody can hurry; the part we control is the paperwork at both ends, and that is where imports usually stall.
Transparent Pricing
You see the car's price, the freight, the duty and levies, and our fee, as separate lines, not one number you have to trust. The landed cost on every listing is that sum, worked out before you commit to anything.
The Japanese auction floor
We bid at over 200 auction locations across Japan, which is where most of this stock comes from: the same cars the dealers buy, at the price they pay for them.
Marine insurance, if you want it
Insurance is your choice, and it changes what the quote is called. CIF is cost, insurance and freight: the car is covered at sea. CNF is cost and freight, without cover. We quote either; just tell us which, and the invoice will say which one you bought.
