Questions people ask before their first bid
Which cars can I import to the US?
Any vehicle 25 years or older by model year, without DOT or EPA modifications. The filter is on by default.

You set the maximum you are willing to pay. Our agents in Japan place the bid at the auction house.
What does the deposit cover?
10% of your maximum bid is held while the bid is active and returned in full if you do not win.
How long does shipping take?
Usually 6 to 10 weeks from the auction to a US East Coast port, depending on the sailing.
