Car came in fair condition, AC works, engine feels okay and there is good space in the back. My dealings with SAT Japan were straightforward. Happy with my purchase from sat japan.
Very happy to finally receive my Coaster. There is some normal wear inside and one seat could be cleaner, but these things are small. Mechanically, it has been good till now. I appreciate the support Sat provided during the whole import process.
Bought this Rosa mainly for business use. The bus arrived in good shape and the engine sounds strong. Interior is also decent considering the age. I liked that SAT Japan kept the process clear from payment until shipment.
Honestly I was a bit worried before the car arrived but When I saw the car, I felt relaxed. It looked close to what I saw in the photos and drives very well. Good purchase form sat japan.
Nice little car. Clean, fuel saving and easy to drive. SAT Japan communication was also good. Happy with it so far.
This picture means a lot to me. Standing beside the car with someone close to me made the day even more special. The vehicle looks clean and ready for the road. SAT was very helpful throughout the process. Full Marks from my side.
I will be honest, my experience was not as good as I hoped. SAT Japan was able to get the car to me, but I felt the process had some problems. I wanted better communication and a smoother experience.
What a great day! 😊 My car is finally here. I really like the Toyota and I was proud to stand next to it. SAT Japan helped make this possible, and seeing the car ready was a wonderful feeling. I just hope it gives me many safe and happy journeys.
The car looks good, but my feelings about SAT Japan are mixed. I was excited to receive the vehicle, but I also had some concerns along the way. There is so much delay in the process, which is frightening for me as a first-time buyer. I expected the whole process to be easier and more smooth. The car itself gave me a good feeling, but the service could have been better.
