Become an authorised Car Dreams dealer.

Car Dreams is the brand Sri Lankan buyers trust to help them get the right Japanese car. Behind the brand sits a live Japan-side stock catalogue, with original auction sheets, JAAI verification, and itemised landed-price math on every unit. Authorised dealers are the people who turn that into a buyer's reality: the consultation, the shortlist conversation, the quote walkthrough, the progress updates, the handover, and the relationship that follows. We bring the customer, the brand, the catalogue, and the standards. You bring craft, care, and a customer experience buyers tell their family about.

What it means to wear the badge

verified_user

A brand buyers already trust

Buyers find Car Dreams because they're tired of guesswork: opaque margins, missing auction sheets, vague delivery dates. As an authorised dealer you inherit that trust on day one. They arrive ready to buy from someone who works to a known standard, not a stranger they have to vet.

Cars and standards, ready to go

Live Japan-side stock with full auction sheets, JAAI verification, and itemised landed-price math already in place. Lease scenarios worked out. Standards documented and ready to apply. You walk into every customer conversation with the cars, the data, and the pricing ready, so you can focus on the work only a great dealer can do.

A business that compounds

Every clean handover earns you a referenceable customer, a stronger record in the network, and visibility on cardreams.lk. Reputation under a national brand compounds in a way a solo yard can't match: repeat buyers, family referrals, and a name people remember.

How the dealership works

1

Apply and onboard

We review your application, check car-import experience and references, and walk you through a short standards orientation: access to the live Car Dreams stock catalogue, the quote walkthrough format, response SLAs, the escalation path, and the toolkit that supports every customer conversation.

2

Receive a customer match

Buyers come to Car Dreams with a clear idea of what they want: make, model, year, budget, finance plan, delivery city. We match each one to an authorised dealer who fits their specialty and region, and hand off the conversation with full context.

3

Walk the buyer through the catalogue

Use the live Car Dreams stock catalogue to shortlist two to four units that fit the buyer. Every car comes with the original Japan auction sheet (USS, TAA, JU, HAA), JAAI verification, and a fully itemised landed-price breakdown already in place: CIF, CID, surcharge, VAT, excise, luxury where applicable. Decode the sheets in plain language and answer the questions only an experienced dealer can.

4

Stay with the buyer through delivery

Once the buyer commits, the car begins its journey: shipping from Japan to Colombo or Hambantota, customs clearance, duty and tax, DMT registration, and plates. You are the buyer's named contact throughout: progress milestones, paperwork support, the keys-in-hand walkthrough at handover, and a relationship that doesn't end at the gate.

5

Build your record under the brand

Clean handovers and honest documentation earn you preferred-dealer status: first pick on inbound matches that fit your specialty, public listing visibility on cardreams.lk, and a network reputation that brings repeat buyers and family referrals to your door.

The standards every authorised dealer upholds

These are the commitments every dealer in the network makes: to the buyer, to the brand, and to each other.
