How to Import a Car Straight from Japan (Without the Headache)

Importing from Japan opens up a world of unique vehicles––whether it’s a classic Land Cruiser, a turbocharged wagon, or an eye-catching kei truck. Sunshine Imports makes the process simple. We handle everything for you, so all you have to do is choose the car.

We Handle the Entire Process for You

Sunshine Imports acts as your Japanese import broker, handling:

All paperwork and customs filings

• Domestic and international trucking logistics
• Currency exchange and wire transfers
• Direct purchase of the vehicle
• Any maintenance completed in Japan
• Ownership transfer to your name

We manage the full import pipeline—so you don’t have to.

Get the Exact Car You Want

Unlike buying from U.S. importers with limited stock, our service starts with your exact specifications. You tell us what you're looking for, and we’ll find it directly in Japan’s massive domestic market.

We source vehicles through:

• Public auctions
  
• Wholesale dealership networks
• Trusted private sellers

You’ll approve the vehicle before purchase, and we’ll handle everything from there.

Real-Time Updates, Start to Finish

Once your vehicle is en route, we’ll provide ongoing updates from our team––from the auction, to port in Japan, on the ship, and directly to you. You'll always know where your car is and when to expect it.

Fast Turnaround + Ongoing Support

Most vehicles arrive within 3 months of purchase. Once it lands, we stay involved—offering support with port pickup and delivery, inspections, and titling and registration. We're with you until your vehicle is fully road-ready.
