Who We Serve

MINTCO Auto Sales works with a wide range of customers across the United States.

Automotive Enthusiasts

Many enthusiasts dream of owning a genuine Japanese import. These vehicles offer a driving experience and heritage that cannot always be found in domestic vehicles.

Collectors

Collectors often seek rare vehicles with documented history and original specifications. Japanese imports offer many unique opportunities for collectors looking to expand their automotive collections.

Everyday Drivers

Not every imported vehicle is a collector’s item. Many customers simply want a reliable vehicle with unique features or lower mileage compared to vehicles available locally.

Businesses and Specialty Buyers

Some businesses use imported vehicles for promotional purposes, specialty fleets, or off-road utility. MINTCO Auto Sales works with both individual buyers and businesses.

Our Commitment to Transparency

Trust is essential when purchasing an imported vehicle. MINTCO Auto Sales believes in maintaining clear communication with every customer throughout the process.

We provide detailed information about vehicle sourcing, pricing, shipping timelines, and import procedures so buyers understand exactly what to expect.

Our team is available to answer questions and provide updates at each stage of the import process.

We want every customer to feel confident about their purchase.

Shipping and Logistics

Shipping a vehicle internationally requires careful planning and coordination.

MINTCO Auto Sales works with established shipping partners that specialize in vehicle transport between Japan and the United States.

Two primary shipping methods are typically used.

Roll-On/Roll-Off Shipping

This method allows vehicles to be driven onto a specialized cargo ship and secured during transit. It is one of the most common and cost-effective ways to transport vehicles internationally.

Container Shipping

In container shipping, vehicles are secured inside shipping containers before being loaded onto cargo vessels.

This option may provide additional protection during transit and is sometimes preferred for rare or high-value vehicles.

Shipping times from Japan to the United States typically range from several weeks depending on the port of departure and arrival.

The Growing Popularity of JDM Imports

Over the past two decades, Japanese imports have become increasingly popular in the United States.

Car enthusiasts have developed a deep appreciation for Japanese engineering and performance heritage.

Social media, automotive events, and enthusiast communities have all contributed to the growing interest in JDM vehicles.

Many of the cars that enthusiasts admired in magazines and video games during the 1990s and early 2000s are now becoming eligible for import under the 25-year rule.

As a result, demand for these vehicles continues to grow each year.

MINTCO Auto Sales is proud to help customers experience these vehicles firsthand.
