Honda FIT

I was very excited about getting my Honda Fit from SAT Japan, so I expected everything to go smoothly. Sadly, the process gave me some stress and I had to wait longer than I wanted. I was honestly disappointed. The Honda Fit itself is nice and looks good, so that made me feel better. SAT Japan has a good chance to improve the customer service and make the buying process easier.

Suzuki SWIFT

I really like my Suzuki Swift. It looks nice and feels like a good little car for everyday driving. But my experience with SAT Japan was not perfect. I had a few moments where I felt confused and wished the communication was better. Still, I am happy with the car itself. I just hope the service can be smoother next time.

Daihatsu MOVE

This is exactly the kind of vehicle I needed. Good space, comfortable driving position and useful when carrying more people. I saw the vehicle on SAT Japan and decided after checking the photos and details. Buying part was easier than I thought. The car reached with one faded plastic area inside, which I don't really mind because it is a used vehicle. Overall, good purchase for me.
