Background
The Toyota Aristo was the JDM twin of the Lexus GS300, sitting between the Altezza/IS and the flagship Celsior/LS400. Unlike the U.S. GS300, this Aristo V300 came equipped from the factory with the 2JZ-GTE Twin Turbo engine, making it a true sleeper sedan.
The car comes with a clean CarVX history report (similar to Carfax, but Japan-based) confirming mileage and condition.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this vehicle legal to register in the U.S.?
Vehicles that are 25 years or older qualify under the federal 25-year import rule. State registration and emissions requirements vary—please check your local DMV. Each car includes a Wisconsin title for straightforward registration in your state.
What documents come with the car?
Wisconsin title, dealer purchase contract, bill of sale (optional with payment info), and a Wisconsin buyer’s guide (our full inspection).
Do you arrange shipping?
Yes—open or enclosed transport anywhere in the continental U.S. Typical transit time is 3–10 business days depending on distance and carrier availability.
Can I get financing?
Many banks and credit unions finance imported vehicles; requirements vary. We’ll provide any paperwork they need. We recommend LightStream for unsecured lending options.
Can I do a pre-purchase inspection (PPI)?
We perform a comprehensive inspection in-house and can provide additional photos or videos on request. For insurance reasons, vehicles cannot be taken off-site.
How do I place a deposit or hold the car?
We don’t accept deposits on inbound cars. To reserve or start a custom search, use our
JDM vehicle search and purchase down payment deposit.
Deposits are typically non-refundable and applied to the purchase price.
What forms of payment do you accept?
Wire transfer, cashier’s check, and cash. For smaller amounts (e.g., deposits), credit card, ACH, or wire may be available. Title and release occur after funds clear.
Is there a warranty?
Vehicles are sold as-is, without warranty. We’re happy to answer detailed condition questions and provide extra photos or videos.
How is mileage displayed?
JDM vehicles display kilometers from the factory. We list kilometers and provide a miles conversion for convenience.
Will it pass emissions in my state?
Federal 25-year imports are typically exempt from EPA/DOT conformity; state emissions/inspection rules vary. Some areas require safety or opacity checks; California has additional CARB rules. Please verify local requirements before purchase.
Do you take trades?
Case-by-case. Send year, make, model, VIN, photos, and payoff (if applicable) for a quick evaluation.
Parts and service for this model?
We source OEM and aftermarket parts directly from Japan and stock many wear items. For platforms like Toyota 2JZ-GTE, there’s extensive U.S. support.
