San Diego sits two hours from Long Beach, our main US West Coast gateway from Auckland — your car clears customs and is on a transporter south the same day. SoCal registration is well-trodden for 25-year-rule imports.
Importify Cars is a New Zealand vehicle exporter — we source, verify and ship Japanese performance cars from the deepest JDM pool outside Japan to buyers across United States. New Zealand imported Japan's best for thirty years: Skyline GT-Rs, Supras, RX-7s, Evos and Type Rs with English-language ownership history, NZTA odometer records, and the option of a physical inspection before you commit — none of which a Japanese auction grade sheet gives you.
