JDM Importation
Classic JDM Cars. Imported Right.
We source, import, and deliver authentic Japanese Domestic Market classics directly from Japan. Are you ready for your dream car?
Your Source for Authentic JDM Classics
MSP Imports has deep roots in Japanese automotive culture. Beyond our repair shop, we specialize in sourcing and importing classic JDM vehicles directly from Japan for 15+ years — the cars that were never officially sold in the US market. With our connections, experience, and hands-on mechanical expertise, we handle the entire process from finding the right car to getting it in your driveway.
WHAT MAKES MSP IMPORTS THE BEST?
Direct Japan Connections
We work with trusted auction houses and dealers in Japan to source vehicles with verified history and honest condition reports.
Mechanical Expertise On-Site
Unlike brokers who just ship cars, we're ASE Certified mechanics. Once imported every vehicle gets a full service & inspection.
Full Import Handling
We manage the entire process — purchasing, shipping, customs clearance, compliance, and titling — so you don't have to navigate it alone.
25-Year Rule Specialists
We know the federal 25-year import rule inside and out and only source vehicles that qualify for legal US street registration.
Transparent Pricing
We give you a clear breakdown of vehicle cost, shipping, customs, compliance, and our service fee upfront.
Post-Import Support
Once your car arrives, our shop is here for any maintenance, repairs, or upgrades. We know these cars better than anyone.
How It Works
Tell Us What You Want
Share your dream car — make, model, year range, color, and budget. We'll let you know what's realistic and what's available in the Japanese market right now.
We Source & Bid
We search Japanese auction houses and dealer networks for vehicles matching your criteria. You review auction sheets and photos before we bid.
Purchase & Ship
Once a vehicle is secured, we arrange shipping from Japan to the Port of Tacoma or a Port near you. Transit typically takes 8 weeks but varies depending on circumstances. We will keep you informed every step of the way.
Customs & Compliance
We handle all customs paperwork, EPA/DOT compliance documentation, and bond requirements to get your vehicle legally into the US.
Inspection & Prep
Every vehicle goes through our shop for a full inspection and service.
Delivery & Title
We coordinate final delivery and assist with Washington State titling and registration so you're legal and on the road.
