Six Steps to Sourcing Your Car

No hidden variables. We guide you through the process with direct updates on every phase.

  1. 01

    Browse or Custom Request

    Select from our live stock, or specify model, year, and maximum budget for direct auction bidding.

    Review Condition & Quote

    We provide comprehensive condition reports, JDM history, and a detailed CIF quote to your destination port.

  3. 03

    Secure Bid Deposit

    Commit a minor refundable security deposit. This initiates live JDM bidding and physical yard inspection.

    Secure T/T Wire Payment

    Once vehicle is secured, pay the balance safely via Bank Telegraphic Transfer (T/T) against commercial invoices.

  5. 05

    Port Clearance & Shipping

    We reserve RoRo space, handle customs at Yokohama, load the car, and send shipping BL documents.

  6. 06

    Port Pickup & Customs

    Receive the vehicle at your local port. Our designated regional agents assist with customs, tax, and registration.
