Nice rare JDM cars you cannot find anywhere else in South Carolina. All 100% legal. Super helpful and easy to work out a deal with. Stayed in contact before and after my purchase to ensure everything went well. The owner and technician are available via text for any questions/concerns regarding the vehicle. Even on days off I’ve been able to get ahold of them with mechanical questions. Small dealership that really cares for their customers. Five stars all the way. It’s hard to find this kind of hospitality nowadays.

Brooks and the guys at JDM are so far ahead of any other dealership it’s unbelievable. Down to earth guys, running a business because it’s their passion and it shows. You will never meet a group of nicer people! After hunting for a skyline for months and communicating with other dealerships, Brooks was able to find the car I wanted and I will not be using any other dealerships to source my JDM imports from now on. If you don’t believe me go visit their dealership, it’ll put the biggest smile on your face!

Honestly the easiest purchase I've ever made. Brooks was completely transparent about ever detail about the car. The best thing was he always sent videos about the car. He would show every little thing. Even for the compression test he sent the video confirming all the numbers. AJ is also highly knowledgeable and helpful. He took time to get the wheels balanced again as they were not done properly from Japan. Without a doubt will be the only place I go to purchase imported vehicles!

My Wife and I bought a 95 Honda Odyssey AWD from Japan Direct Motors, 3 months ago. AJ and Brooks are great guys to work with. Even after the purchase Brooks still took the time to help educate me in how to get the proper insurance coverage for the Odyssey. We have full coverage and are able to daily this van everyday. Also there was a missing floor mat that was misplaced and they took the time to ship it out to me. This was very important to me as it completed a whole set of rare and old school Honda Access floor mats. Also the Odyssey has an aftermarket turbo kit on it and with research I have

I recently bought an R33 Skyline from Japan Direct Motors and had a great experience throughout. I talked to Brooks first who was very honest and helpful about the car. I was then referred to AJ who answered any questions I had and was quick to send me pictures of the underside of the car, fluids, and the engine bay. The price was fair for the condition it was in and I decided on it. Brooks helped me get it delivered quickly from them to Ohio and I’ve been driving a lot since arriving. No issues at all with getting it titled and registered and I’m extremely happy with the car and the service

We needed a right hand driving vehicle in Oklahoma fast due to my husband working for the USPS. We spoke to Brooks and he provided Fantastic customer service. He guided us through the financial and shipping of the vehicle. Every step of the way he went above and beyond and we love the vehicle. Thank you Japan Direct Motors!!!

I bought a 1990 Toyota Hiace from Brooks and AJ. They are straight up car guys, not scumbag salesmen, and are very easy to deal with! Vehicle already came with a South Carolina title and was as easy to deal with as any vehicle purchase has ever been! I couldn't be happier with my funky old van! Japan Direct Motors will always be my first go to for JDM vehicles!
