Calculating The Shipping Fee:

To find the cost of used and new Japanese cars, we must calculate the M3 or (Cubic Meter). It can be found using a very simple equation: M3 = Width x Length x Height (of a car). So for our example scenario, we are going to import a Mitsubishi Lancer to East Africa Mombasa Port. The Lancer's M3 is 10.7, and the cost at Mombasa port is $100.95 USD per M3. For the last step, we multiply them together. 10.7 x 100.95 = $1,080 USD. This is the price you can expect to pay to import a Lancer to East Africa.

Below is a table of Countries and Ports. We ship to any port all over the world, and some of the ports we ship to are not currently on this list. Some Japanese vehicle exporters do not ship all over the world, or they only ship to major ports. That is why you can trust us to make sure that the vehicles you buy from us will come to the closest and most convenient port possible.
