Japan Car Market Mcp

Goo-net Japan Used Cars Scraper

Scrape used car listings from goo-net.com — one of Japan's largest used car portals — with prices, maker, and dealer information.

Why This Data

• Japan exported a record 1.71 million used vehicles in 2025 (JUMVEA) — a massive global market
• Used car exporters (BE FORWARD, carused.jp, SBT Japan, etc.) constantly need fresh inventory and pricing data
• JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) models are highly valued worldwide
• Zero dedicated cross-listing competitor on Apify Store at launch

Features

• ✅ Server-side rendered pages (no browser needed — fast & cheap)
• ✅ Nationwide inventory (47 prefectures) with pagination
• ✅ Model name, price (JPY), maker, image, dealer shop, and detail URL per listing
• ✅ Prefecture filter (e.g. 01 = Hokkaido, 13 = Tokyo, 47 = Okinawa)
• ✅ EUC-JP encoding handled automatically
• ✅ Runs on Apify proxy — no IP blocking issues

Price Stats API Mode (相場統計API)

Same Actor doubles as a price stats API for market research — returns aggregated price statistics for a car model without downloading the full listing data.

Request (Apify synchronous API):

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/bgm5Gxn4BeBmoO7xD/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN&timeout=120" \  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \  -d '{"statsMode": true, "statsKeyword": "N-BOX", "maxItems": 30, "maxPages": 1}'

Response (JSON):

{  "statsType": "goo-net-car-price",  "keyword": "N-BOX",  "count": 5,  "priceMin": 230000,  "priceMax": 1907000,  "priceAvg": 974400,  "priceMedian": 596000,  "sampleItems": [{"title": "...", "price": 230000, "detailUrl": "...", "shop": "..."}]}

• statsKeyword: model name (e.g. N-BOX, ハイエース). Full-width/half-width matching handled automatically
• Combine with bodyType to narrow (e.g. KEI, SUV)
• Use cases: market research, dealer pricing benchmarks, export valuation
