Japanese auction sheets can look intimidating at first, but they're actually one of the most transparent vehicle history documents available anywhere in the world.
Every vehicle sold through USS, TAA, or JU auctions carries a grade from 1 to S, reflecting overall condition. A Grade 5 vehicle is like new with minimal wear, while a Grade 3 has visible wear or repair history.
Beyond the headline grade, the sheet includes a diagram marking every scratch, dent, and repair panel on the body — so you know exactly what you're bidding on before the vehicle ever leaves Japan.
Our agents review every auction sheet in person before we bid on your behalf, and we'll walk you through exactly what each marking means.
