Trusted since 1997

When Provide Cars was first established, the internet was just a newborn baby. It used to take 10 minutes to download a picture! All auction purchases were done by international telephone calls. A lot has changed since then. The internet is no longer a baby but a mature adult, and photos now take milliseconds to download. Whereas you would have to imagine the car being described to you by phone, you can now view it with your own eyes.

We have loyal dealers overseas who have worked with us for over 20 years and have developed an unreplaceable rapport. Our ultimate goal is to build trusting, long-term rapport with our customers. Our goal with you, too, is to build a trusting relationship and a good experience. Allow us the privilege of proving ourselves to you!

Bilingual support

Our agents are either native English speakers or outstanding Japanese English speakers. We are ALL fluent in Japanese. Communication is essential to avoiding misunderstandings, which can lead to devastating mistakes. We can communicate with you with the tools of your convenience: email, phone, and social media (WhatsApp or skype). We will meet you where your personality would like us to. Some people prefer to chat over the phone to feel a sense of rapport. Others prefer to communicate behind a computer screen. We’ll meet you where YOU want us to meet.

Transparency

We don’t think you like hidden costs, and neither do we. You can request “transparency documents” from us, and we will send them to you: your purchased vehicle’s auction invoice. We believe transparency is an essential component of ethical marketing. It is also important for trust. If we think you will save money by buying from elsewhere, we will tell you this. Profits are essential to us, but they will only be achieved by one satisfied customer at a time. Let us surprise you with our openness and honesty.

Direct Access to Wholesale Auction Prices. Bid yourself! icon

We provide free access to view all vehicles from more than 130 live auction houses in Japan. These are where dealers purchase their stock. At times, 50,000 cars are listed in a single day. We also source cars that are not listed in the auctions. Tell us the vehicle you are searching for, and we will help find it for you. 

It only BENEFITS you to be able to choose from EVERY available auction, EVERY day. 

Smooth and seamless exports. icon

Smooth and seamless exports.

Since 1997, we have exported thousands of cars to many countries. We have processed EVERY type of car or truck with EVERY type of import requirement. We have done LOLO, RORO, 20ft container, 40ft container, transhipping, rail shipping. There is no paperwork requirement under the Japanese sun that we haven’t experienced!  We KNOW what your problem is: you want a car of your choice to arrive at the destination of your choice.  Our answer: we can do it. 

Genuine supervision to help you avoid buying a lemon.  icon

Experience matters. We have been doing what we do now since 1997, and with that comes many experiences. Some were glorious moments to cherish, but many were bitter, harsh, frustrating, and head-slapping experiences. However, they all were for a purpose! The purpose of allowing you NOT to make the same mistakes. The purpose of having you succeed at bringing the car of your choice to the destination of your choice.   

We have experienced agents with 25+ years of experience exporting used cars from Japan. We supervise the bidding, weeding out bidding errors made by customers. This is not a judgment. These mistakes are easily and commonly made. Our customers often voice relief and appreciation for such care. I hope you like being supervised; it is for your OWN good!
