Pricing

Burn rubber. Not cash.

You no longer have to pay the inflated prices of used caryards. With Savage Sushi helping you import your car yourself, you not only get a huge choice of cars, you save a bootload as well. So say goodbye to shonky dealers and middle men taking their cut, and say hello to a sweet set of wheels, at a really sweet price.

There are a few things to keep in mind, though, when it comes to handing over your hard-earned cash. For one thing, all bids have to be made in Yen (it’s in Japan, after all). So you need to get familiar with the exchange rate (it’s about $A1 = 0.65jpy), and that it’s continually changing. For exact conversions, please use our clever import cost-calculator.

We also want to explain the FULL cost of importing a car before you start – so you never get any nasty surprises. There are costs involved beyond the purchase price – like duty, freight, compliance and on road costs. We’ve outlined them all here in a typical example. 

Are you getting seriously close? Want to import the right car?

All the costs. (And one big saving.)

Say you have your heart set on a Mazda RX7 2001 with an original sixty clicks. Here’s a rough guide to what it’ll cost to get the keys in the ignition:

$950Registering with Savage Sushi:

$20,000Your successful bid price. Let’s say 1,300,000jpy, which equals:

$2000 10% Duty:

$1600 Freight (shipping costs):

$2300 10% GST:

$400 Customs clearance and quarantine:

$150 Towing to RAWS workshop:

$2900 Compliance by RAW:

$1000On road cost:

And there you have it, about thirty grand.

Now you might look at all those costs and think it seems expensive. But compare the total with an import car yard – you’ll find their price more likely to be between $33,000 and $37,000!
