Why Import Cars From The USA to New Zealand?

Popularity of classic cars has exploded over the years. Kiwi buyers come to the US market in search of classics due to greater availability, better condition, and lower prices.

Some New Zealanders also make the trip to the US, and turn their search for a car into a vacation. While others buy remotely from reputable dealers, or through our escrow service.

The availability of consolidation also makes for shipping a car from the US to New Zealand an affordable option. Because of high demand for US cars, we have a steady stream of containers departing for Australia. Single vehicles are quickly consolidated into shared containers, saving you over 50% on international shipping costs.
