2. Vehicle Listings and Information
We make reasonable efforts to ensure that vehicle descriptions, specifications, photographs, prices, mileage, and other listing information are accurate.
However, vehicle availability, prices, specifications, mileage, and condition may change without notice. Photographs and online descriptions are provided for reference and should be reviewed alongside the relevant inspection reports and sales documentation.
All vehicle purchases are subject to confirmation by Auto King Japan and the terms stated in the applicable quotation or Proforma Invoice.
3. Pricing and Quotations
Vehicle prices may be quoted under different international shipping terms, including FOB, CFR, and CIF.
The applicable quotation will specify the agreed price, shipping arrangements, destination port, payment requirements, and any additional charges included in the transaction.
