The process

How it works

Japan Motor Source helps Australians discover vehicles at Japanese auctions, estimate costs honestly, and coordinate the import journey — without pretending we are a dealership or compliance workshop.

  1. 01

    Browse live auctions

    Search and filter Japanese auction lots. URLs stay shareable so you can revisit or send a shortlist link.

  2. 02

    Estimate landed costs

    Enter the auction price and options. The backend calculator returns an itemised estimate with assumptions and disclaimers — never a guaranteed quote.

  3. 03

    Enquire or ask us to source

    Enquire about a specific vehicle or tell us what you’re looking for. Every enquiry creates a lead for the sourcing team.

  4. 04

    Quote, agreement and import tracking

    When you’re ready, we prepare a formal quote and agreement. Active imports are tracked in your customer portal with documents and status updates.
