5 Easy Ways to Import Japanese Used Cars And Skip The Dealerships

By Clement Tourtet

Let's say you're in the market for a used vehicle - will you check online? Sure, you can find some great cars on the internet, but mostly everyone still needs to see a car before buying it, and thus sticks only to the local market.

We're here to suggest 5 reasons why you should look far away " as far as Japan! " when considering a used car.

#5: Japanese Take Extremely Good Care of Their Cars.

Known the world over for having extremely high maintenance standards, you simply won't find a used car in Japan that isn't in good condition. Their culture is such that every used car has been maintained as though it were new, and even 15-year-old Japanese used cars will impress you with the shape they're in.

#4: Their Roads are Amazing.

The high standards also apply to road maintenance - the highways and streets throughout Japan are ultra-modern and continuously maintained, which means that any used car you purchase through export will have been driven on pristine highways throughout its whole life. Pothole damage is a foreign concept.

#3: It's Hard to Keep a Good Used Car in Japan, Strangely.

Part of the reason the cars are maintained so incredibly well is because of Japan's exacting standards when it comes to used vehicles. This applies not only to emissions, but also to the state of repair any vehicle must be in after reaching 6 years on the road. Many Japanese simply trade up to a new vehicle, meaning the market for Japanese used cars is particularly rich.

#2: Shipping is Actually Pretty Simple.

Although it might sound expensive, there are container ships heading to ports near you extremely often. Exporters use a system called roll-on, roll-off shipping, which means the car rolls into the container, and rolls off once it arrives at its destination. Ordering and shipping a car from Japan isn't nearly as expensive as you might think.

#1: There Are Certain Japanese Editions That Have Never Hit Your Country.

A long time ago, Japan realized it was cheaper to simply build cars in their target markets and gear them towards those markets in the first place. But now, by ordering Japanese used cars directly from the actual country (being, of course, Japan), you might see models and features that you've simply never had access to before. - 21392
