CarGene MCP server

CarGene is a remote MCP server that gives an AI agent 9 tools, among them check_part_fitment, get_sales_figures, get_us_import_eligibility. It answers at https://api.car-gene.com/mcp over streamable HTTP, and it listed its tools to an anonymous client, so no sign-in was needed for that. Our probes reached it 4 of 4 times since 23 September 2026; the last check, on 7 November 2026, succeeded.

Description as the publisher wrote it.

The 9 tools CarGene offers

ToolWhat it does
check_part_fitmentUse this when the user asks whether an aftermarket part (wheel, coilover, muffler, brake pad, intake and so on) fits a specific car generation, or which parts are confirmed to fit it. Pass the model_id of that generation from search_vehicle
Inputs: model_id, part_key, query, offset
get_sales_figuresGet the sales figures of a series. Without region_code it returns the overview {series_id, url, region_totals, lifetime, coverage, regions}; with region_code it returns that region year by year {series_id, url, region_code, region_totals, c
Inputs: series_id, model_id, region_code, year_from
get_us_import_eligibilityUse this when the user asks when a Japanese car can be imported into the United States under the twenty-five-year rule, for example whether a Skyline GT-R of a given generation is legal to import yet. First find the car with search_vehicles
Inputs: series_id, model_id
get_vehicleGet one series with the list of its generations (models) and the cited sources, and with a model_id also that generation in detail. Returns {series, maker, models, sources}, plus model when a model_id is given. Each entry in models has id,
Inputs: series_id, model_id
get_vehicle_relationshipsGet the relationships between generations (succession, sibling, derivation, spiritual successor). A series_id returns the relations of the whole series; a model_id returns only the relations that have that generation at either end. Returns
Inputs: series_id, model_id, offset
get_vehicle_specsUse this for the specifications of one generation: horsepower, torque, engine type, transmission, drivetrain, weight, dimensions, fuel economy, tire sizes and new-car prices. First find the car with search_vehicles, then pass its model_id.
Inputs: model_id, offset
search_shopsUse this when someone looks for a place in Japan to have a car service done, such as a vehicle inspection (shaken), a self-service or hand car wash, a coating, a wheel alignment, or fitting coilovers, near a city or a point. Do not use it f
Inputs: service_code, area, latitude, longitude, radius_km, require
search_used_carsUse this when someone wants to buy a used car in Japan, or asks for a used car that fits a budget, a model year, mileage or a manual transmission. To narrow to a specific car, first find its generation with search_vehicles and pass model_id
Inputs: model_id, series_id, max_total_price_yen, min_total_price_yen, min_year, max_year
search_vehiclesFind series by name, maker name, a generation's name, or a generation's chassis code. Series names match by normalized substring (width, case, kana), maker names by prefix, chassis codes by substring of the code as written (a slash-joined c
Inputs: query, offset
