Few months ago I have received mindblowing evo iv, from Sean, Zen Autoworks. I cannot believe 15 year old car could still look like new. The quality and the condition of the car it's... undescribeable. I still get adrenalin rush every morning just looking at the car. Also I cannot say enough about Sean being very kind and caring before and afterwards. Thank you very much Sean!!

A few months ago, I purchased a Toyota Landcruiser from Zen Autoworks. As I drive about the city I am constantly getting looks and compliments on the vehicle as there is only a handful of Landcruisers in Winnipeg. Everyone I show is in shock of the condition of the vehicle. In my case it is not only 15 yrs old but actually 18yrs old(1993). I was initially thinking of using the Landcruiser as a part-time drive for my fishing and hunting excursions throughout the year and using my old car as a daily drive to and from work. That idea was quickly extinguished once the compliments started rolling in and my love for the Landcruiser increased. My car is now rusting away in the drive way and the Cruiser is with me everyday. And of course when people see the vehicle, the inevitable question comes up... "Where did you get this thing!!!???". Initial reaction is to try and take all the credit and tell people I did all the research and leg work myself, but all I do is point to the the little red sticker on the windshield and say..." ZEN AUTO. They are awesome! You should check out their website!" Right to the end, Sean was there addressing any concerns that I may have had. Thank you Sean for helping me land my dream vehicle :D

Sean with zen autoworks was very efficient and helpful when I was looking for a solid car. Hands down brings in the nicest, cleanest low km cars from Japan this side of the country. Will be looking at buying another car from him this summer!

I bought a 94 hilux surf and things could not have been easier. Sean was great in answering any questions i might of had. he took care of the shipping and all i had to do was wait for it to arrive. the surf was in great condition, and after driving it for a couple weeks, i can say its amazing. i would recommend Zenauto to anyone looking to get a JDM.

Well I think I should add my opinion of Zen Autoworks. The guys that helped me get my Supra here to Canada must be great business partners with Sean. I am still very impressed with my Supra and I love how everyone that did not like right hand drive cars have great things to say about my purchase. We have seen a lot of garbage imports from other people and Sean & the team are doing a great thing for us people that want more then just a car. Cheers, Thon

I got what I wanted, a really nice car!!! Sean was probably the best person to deal with, even after the 20 millions question I asked him! He even meet me at the airport to get to the car! If I could say anything about Sean, I would only say that he is the best person you can deal with! Ben

I want to thank Zen Autoworks for delivering a vehicle that utterly exceeded my expectations. I was hesitant to deal with an out of province importer, but the quality of units Sean delivered to his customers tipped the scales for me. I haven't regretted it ever since! From the first step to the last Sean kept me promptly updated about the status of my Evo, and expressed a personal interest in getting the car to me. I couldn't be more satisfied with the service Zen Autoworks provided, and I wouldn't think twice about Sean handling my next import.

Very pleased with my purchase from Zen Autoworks, Sean is a great person to deal with. He is professional in manners and attitude. Also a very energetic car enthusiast! Any concerns that I had during the transaction AND afterwards, Sean stepped up and dealt with them without hesitation. Even during the christmas holiday, Sean showed true concern for a customer and did what he could at that time. Despite myself not wanting to be a bother over the christmas holidays! I am still very happy with my purchase, the car looked even more amazing in person than the pictures he proved! I recommend Zen Autoworks to anybody looking to import a vehicle, top notch representation and service!

This testimonial is long overdue, but I want to let potential purchasers know about our experience with Zen Autoworks. In a word, Sean was fantastic! I simply cound not have navigated this process without him. Sean is knowledgable, supportive, professional, and transparent, and readily available to answer my many questions with patience and calm reassurance. I will likely purchase another vehicle from Japan, and I wouldn't even consider using anyone else, my experience was seamless from moment one. Thanks again Sean!!! Just a word on the vehicle, our Delica was exactly as described, there were no surprises and we are absolutely thrilled with it. They are all over the Okanagan Valley now, and its not hard to understand why. This vehicle still makes us smile every single time we drive it.

Sorry this has taken so long but just wanted to let everyone know what a great decision I made when I chose Sean to import my Delica. I absolutely love it!! I've had it for almost a year now and have had no problems at all. It was in awesome shape, totally like having a new vehicle at such a great price. Sean was always quick to reply and on top of everything....it was a worry free process. Thanks Sean!

Sean and the guys from Zen are absolutely great to deal with. The car exceeded expectations. Abolutely fantastic condition. This is not my first GTR, and it will not be my last. I definitely want Zen to handle my next import!

After owning a JDM Landcruiser(1989 HJ61), I became really interested in the JDM cars coming out of Japan. What particularly impressed me was the condition of the vehicles. True enough, when I took delivery of a '94 BMW 540i from Sean, it was everything I imagined it to be and much more. Throughout the entire process, from our initial contact to final delivery, Sean was always highly professional. I would not hesitate to recommend Zen Autoworks for the JDM vehicle of your dreams.

Truly a great experience. My fiancee and I couldn't be happier with our purchase. Sean kept us apprised throughout the entire process, and the Hilux is a dream come true. A true pleasure to drive.

What a perfect example of a '94 Celica GT-Four WRC! I gotta say I was concerned about importing with only having seen pictures, but Sean was great about answering any and all of my sometimes crazy questions about the process, car details, and what i could expect once it got here. The best part was Sean installed all the compliance parts necessary to pass the inspection and even hooked me up with rubber on short notice. I can say that all my worries about the condition of the car disappeared once I saw it--flawless. Drives and handles like a dream. Thanks for everything Sean.

I purchased a Supra from Sean back in January of 2009. From the start of the import process all the way until post delivery and getting the car on the road Zen Autoworks was absolutely flawless in its service delivery. Absolutely everything was taken care of, including the out of province inspection, federal inspection, minor compliance issues and the trip to the registry for plating. I guarantee the next car I import will be from Sean.

I can't speak highly enough of Zen Autoworks. Sean went above and beyond to source the highest quality car possible, suited perfectly to my needs. I had been keenly awaiting 2009 so that I could finally import a Celica ST205 into Canada. Sean, who is also a Celica enthusiast, knew of this and sourced several 1994 ST205's in 2008 before the demand got too high for them. As a result, I believe he was able to find the highest quality vehicles available in Japan. When Zen says that they only deal with top quality vehicles, they truly mean it. Would absolutely buy again and have Zen take care of things from end to end. Thanks Sean!

My experience with Zen Autoworks could not have been better; let me start by saying thank you very much! For many years I have been a Toyota Celica enthusiast, so I was anxiously awaiting 2009 when I could finally import a '94 GT-FOUR into Canada. I'd had no experience with importing a car from Japan and was worried about the process and how to get it legally registered. Over the previous year I had browsed a few importer websites and sent some emails asking questions about the process and quality of vehicles. However, I never received the answers I was looking for, and at times I even felt that I was disturbing them. Sometimes it seemed like they didn't even want to import a car for me. With Sean at Zen Autoworks it was the extreme opposite! After my first meeting with Sean I could see that he is truly passionate about cars and is probably more critical about defects than anyone else, including myself! As a result he only imports immaculate condition vehicles that you would swear are brand new and not 15 years old. The best part about Zen Autoworks vehicles is there are no worries about getting them on the road, because Sean will do everything required to make the vehicle legal and ready for registration. I was even lucky enough to have Sean drive over to the registrar with me and see all the paper work through! I think he even screwed my new license plate onto my car for me! Thanks Sean; I couldn't have asked for anything better!

We are a Zen Autoworks Delica recipient and we are still very happy with our ride. Sean is all about quality over quantity, which is why I went with him in the first place. He is even pickier about the quality of cars he brings in than I am (and I'm pretty picky). People are always shocked when they learn our van is 15 years old...everyone assumes it's new or near new. I have seen some of the other vehicles he has brought in and they really impress me. A Toyota Landcruiser and Mitsubishi Lancer he imported, for example, not only looked new inside and out, but smelled new inside and drove as if they were brand new cars! Not bad for something 15 years old. If we find ourselves needing another JDM import (already have two in the driveway now), I wouldn't hesitate to go through Sean at Zen Autoworks again. Thanks Sean!

I searched for a Pajero for close to a year when I found one listed on Zen's website. When I contacted Sean he was honest and provided advice I had not experienced with other dealers. Buying a vehicle sight unseen is nerve-racking but when my Pajero rolled off the truck I was very pleased with what I saw. I was even more pleased when the local mechanic's response was, "where did you find this thing it is in perfect condition". I would highly recommend Sean and Zen, they locate great vehicles.

We can't say enough about Sean and how honest he is. Our experience of buying our Delica through him was exceptional. He did pretty much everything and walked us through the steps we had to complete ourselves. We always had the impression that if something had gone wrong Sean would have been there to make it right.

My experience with Sean and Zen Autoworks has been nothing short of spectacular over the past 7 months. I originally found my '93 Mitsubishi Evolution GSR in April of 2008 and after a few emails back and forth with Sean I went ahead with the purchase. From start to finish Sean was upfront about any problems or delays and was almost as excited to see my car as I was (so it seemed!). I received pictures when the car arrived in Vancouver and when the car finally arrived in Calgary I was blown away at the quality of the vehicle. It was exactly as described. To this day I still come on this website to look for any other potential buys and anytime someone asks me about my car or where to get one like it I tell them to come here and check out what Zen Auto has to offer. Thanks again Sean, you've been great.
