Car Request

Absolutely! Japanese used cars are legendary for their reliability thanks to mandatory biennial inspections and meticulous maintenance culture. The challenge isn't finding great cars—it's navigating the language barrier and paperwork. That's exactly why we created our car request system to connect you with English-speaking dealers who handle all the bureaucracy!

Here's the truth nobody tells you: budget an extra ¥150,000 on top of any listed price! This covers registration fees, taxes, insurance, parking certificate, and dealer handling charges. A car listed at ¥400,000 typically costs ¥550,000+ when you drive away. Our dealers are upfront about total costs so you won't get hit with surprise fees.

Japan requires unique documents like parking certificates (proving you have a spot within 2km of home) and personal seals for registration. Most foreigners spend 2-3 months gathering paperwork before buying. The good news? Our partner dealers handle 99% of this bureaucracy for you, from parking registration to Transport Bureau visits. Just submit your car request and let the experts take over!

It's brilliantly simple! Tell us your dream car specs—make, model, year, budget, fuel type—and we forward your request to trusted dealers across Japan. They search their inventory AND access Japan's exclusive dealer-only auctions to find your perfect match. Most dealers respond within 2 business days with tailored offers. No more language barriers or endless searching!

Yes! Japan's major auction houses like USS, AAA, and JCauc are dealer-exclusive—regular people can't access them. Our registered dealers attend these auctions and bid on your behalf, giving you access to thousands of vehicles that never reach public sale. Each auction car comes with detailed grade sheets (6/S to 1, or R/RA) that we translate so you understand exactly what you're buying.

Japan is a hybrid paradise! From reliable Toyota Aqua (Prius c) models to newer plug-in hybrids, our dealers have access to extensive eco-friendly inventory. Japanese hybrid cars often have incredibly low mileage thanks to excellent public transport—perfect for environmentally conscious buyers looking for proven technology at great prices.

Submitting a basic car request is completely free! If we find your perfect car at auction, dealers might ask for a refundable deposit (usually ¥50,000-100,000 or about 10% of the bid) to secure your vehicle. No hidden surprises—just transparent pricing and access to Japan's best used car market.

Most dealers respond within 2 business days with available inventory matches. If auction bidding is needed, expect updates once translations and bidding confirmations are ready. The beauty of our system is that multiple dealers compete for your business, so you get faster responses and better deals!

Absolutely! Our dealers provide high-resolution photos from multiple angles, translate auction inspection sheets into English, and can even arrange professional staff inspections for added peace of mind. We believe in complete transparency—you should know exactly what you're getting before making any commitment.

No problem! Our dealers handle global shipping via RO/RO or container, complete with export documentation and bills of lading. Typical delivery times are 4-8 weeks depending on destination. From finding your car to delivering it to your doorstep—we've got the entire process covered so you can focus on enjoying your new ride!
