Wish we had real cars over here to begin with. So tired of the FWD and excuses we get in the US.

Very nice car! When are you getting it on a race track? We need videos!

Are you only allowed to drive it less than 500 miles a year? Still...at least you get to drive it. Damn..maybe it might be easier if I just moved to Japan and spent my 15k there instead haha.

How much was it btw? And how much did you spend importing it?

The car is not street legal. Shipping was about $1800 using a roll on roll off carrier instead of a container.

This makes me want to get stationed overseas.. so beautiful. What is the chance of ever getting one street legal after you've done this?

He will have to wait until ~2025 when the car is 25 years old.

Or he can try to do something illegal like find a Mitsubishi mirage (that is not titled as totaled) and swap the VIN tags.
