The car you want, from America — many still under factory warranty.
Ham & Am sources certified vehicles from US dealerships, inspects them in person, and ships them to your port in the GCC. 100+ delivered. $7M+ shipped. Clients typically save $10,000–$50,000.
Why we're different
We don't touch auction cars.
Most exporters shipping into the Gulf are buying at Copart and IAAI — salvage, flood, rebuilt titles. The photos look fine. The history doesn't. By the time the car reaches your port, it's your problem.
Ham & Am buys from franchised US dealerships. Certified pre-owned or recent low-mileage units — many with active factory warranty remaining, though coverage varies by vehicle. Clean title, documented service history, verifiable VIN.
It costs more to source this way. It's also the only version of this business we're willing to run.
No auction cars
No Copart. No IAAI. No rebuilt titles.
Franchised dealers only
Every vehicle sourced from a licensed US franchise dealer.
Factory warranty
Many units carry active factory warranty — coverage varies by vehicle. See the warranty note below.
Clean title
Documented service history, verifiable VIN.
On warranty
Warranty coverage varies by vehicle. Many of the cars we source are certified pre-owned with active factory warranty remaining. Some — particularly higher-mileage or older units — will have no warranty left at all. Others are sold with a dealer warranty that covers the engine and transmission only. Extension options exist for some brands but not all, and eligibility varies by country. For warranty status, parts availability, or extension programmes specific to your vehicle and destination, contact the local authorised dealer for that brand directly.
How it works
From your first message to arrival at your port.
01
Tell us the car
Send us the model, year, spec and your budget on WhatsApp. We'll tell you honestly whether it's the right buy for your market — including when it isn't.
We're in America. We see the car before you buy it.
Anyone can forward you a listing. We're based in Washington, DC — which means before we commit your money, one of us stands in front of that vehicle.
We check what photos hide: paint depth and repaint, panel gaps, undercarriage, flood indicators, tyre dates, service history, title status, remaining warranty coverage. You get the full walkaround on video, including anything we don't like.
If the car is wrong, we say it's wrong and we find another one. We've walked away from more cars than we've bought.
What we check in person
What we source
Most vehicles we've sourced fall between $50,000 and $100,000. Don't see your car above — if it's sold on a US dealer lot, we can usually source it, up to around $150,000. Same rule applies: certified, warrantied, never auction.
Ask about a modelWe also source accessories — OEM and aftermarket — and can arrange shipping alongside your vehicle. Ask us when you get in touch.
You'll know the final number before you commit.
No deposit against a vague estimate. Before you pay anything, you get a written breakdown:
Ham & Am's service fee depends on the vehicle's purchase price and the work required to source and handle it. Your exact fee is stated upfront as a fixed dollar amount before you commit.
Our clients have typically landed vehicles for $10,000 to $50,000 less than comparable spec at a GCC dealership. We'll show you that comparison for your specific car before you decide anything.

Non-binding estimates based on periodically updated reference pricing. Your final quote is confirmed in writing before any purchase. Local customs duty, VAT, registration, and clearance costs are not included.
Where our job starts and where it ends.
We handle
Sourcing, physical inspection, purchase, US domestic transport, export documentation, ocean freight, and delivery to your destination port.
You handle
Customs clearance and registration in your country. We give you the complete document pack and walk you through what's required. For clients in Saudi Arabia, we can introduce you to our clearance contact in Jeddah.
We'd rather tell you this now than after you've paid. Full destination clearance is something we're working toward — when we offer it, we'll say so.
Where we ship
Import rules differ by country — vehicle age limits, title requirements and specification standards all vary, and they change. We confirm your vehicle is eligible for your country before you commit to anything.
Two founders. Over a decade of automotive experience.
Hamad Almanee
Former engineer at Honda in America and currently an AWS Chief Engineer, with six years at AWS.
Ahmad Alfaham
Six years in the US automotive business, working across some of the largest automotive dealer groups in the country.
Together, Hamad and Ahmad bring more than 10 years of automotive experience to Ham & Am, built around one goal: helping clients source the right car from America at the right price, without the usual hassle.
The name Ham & Am comes directly from Hamad and Ahmad.
Since then: 100+ vehicles, $7 million in value, and a client list that's mostly grown by one customer telling a cousin.
