questionWhy direct import from Japan is much cheaper than purchased at local shop?
Please think, that total price of the vehicle purchased and imported directly from us is much cheaper than that of purchased at your local car shop.

Also, all our stock vehicles are fully inspected and new parts replaced at our factory with Japanese government license. We believe that our technical standards is more advanced than that of local factory, so you could take advantage of this opportunity for direct import of your vehicle. We are sure, that our stock vehicles are well assorted and guaranteed, and that the cost of maintenance comes much cheaper in the future.

Yes, you do not have to worry anything about your vehicle’s condition which has been fully inspected, maintained, and replaced by our factory with Japanese government license.

questionCan I get the invitation letter for visa purpose to Japan?
Yes, we will issue the invitation letter only to our existing customers or customers who have just purchased from us.
questionIs there any radiation risk in your location due to Fukushima nuclear accident in 2011?
No, nothing. We are very far from the nuclear plants where the incidents occurred.
questionAre your stock vehicles inspected for radiation?
Yes, all our stock vehicles are inspected in our yard for radiation level by Japanese Cargo Tally Corporation, and in case the vehicle is not passed at the inspection we dispose it immediately.
We can issue “Certification of Inspection and Radiological Safety Hazard” through JEVIC (Japan Export Vehicle Inspection Center), but it costs US$ 100, so it is upon your request.
