I think shipping is like 3-4k via boat,( To the US) but maybe contact one of the major shipping/import export companies close to where the car is....

Hehe. was wondering why you'd want to do that (RHD, value of car etc) till i saw the comments. *chuckle*

Maybe talk to some jap import yards.

lol....cheers

might give u some ideas about going the other way.

ring a freight forwarder and see. plenty inthe hamilton area. KIWI lines is one I haev used. $1700-$2k RORO is the norm.

Yes, ring up a freight forwarder from the yellow pages. Cost me around 2K (eveything inclusive) for a 20 foot cargo to ship my Landcruiser to HK with another 40 boxes of my personal belonging. Took about 12 days to get there.

Have you done some homework regarding Japan's vehicle import? Such as emission requirement, import tax, etcetc. The paper work was a pain in the ass to get the car onto the road in my hometown.

thanks for the responses.....

and no i havent really looked into it much, my father is trying to sell the car..........and there was a guy in japan enquiring about purchasing it thats all
