Timeline to Purchase

Frequently Asked Questions

Under the EPA and DOT 25-year rule, any vehicle manufactured 25 or more years ago can be legally imported to the United States without needing to meet current safety and emissions standards. This means the eligible model years are constantly expanding. Our Verified Dealers can also source newer vehicles that qualify under show/display or other exemptions.
The typical timeline is 2 to 3 months from start to finish. This includes 1-2 weeks for sourcing, 1-2 weeks for purchase and export preparation, 4-6 weeks for ocean shipping, and 1-2 weeks for customs clearance and final delivery. Timelines can vary depending on the vehicle and shipping routes.
Total cost depends on the vehicle purchase price, shipping, customs duties (typically 10% of the vehicle value), and any compliance work needed. Shipping and import fees generally range from $3,000 to $6,000 on top of the vehicle price. Your dealer will provide a full cost breakdown before you commit to any purchase.
Yes. US Customs charges a 10% duty on the declared value of the vehicle. You'll also owe any applicable state sales tax when you register the vehicle. Your dealer handles the customs paperwork and walks you through the process.
If you've found a vehicle that's close to the 25-year mark, your dealer can often arrange secure storage in Japan for an additional fee until it becomes eligible for import. This is a popular option for buyers who want to lock in a great vehicle now rather than risk losing it. Contact us and we'll match you with a dealer who can advise on your specific situation.
That's common — and that's where the network shines. Our Verified Dealers monitor Japanese auctions and dealer inventory continuously. They'll set up alerts for your specific criteria and notify you as soon as a match comes up. Most vehicles are found within 1-4 weeks.
Your dealer provides guidance on the registration process for your state, including the documents you'll need and any state-specific requirements. Every import comes with the necessary customs paperwork and a clean title that your local DMV can process.
