All I know is that in late 2008 I'll be able to import a 94 GT-4 into Canada legally and it probably won't even cost that much. The challenge will be, of course, finding a 94 GT-4 that is still in decent condition.

So what all needs done to a car here in the states? Hard licensing? I know it's legal to have a right hand drive. Just curious.

Theres a GTFOUR in Florida going for $19,000 if someone wants to pick that one up. Has very very low miles. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 15,000 I believe. I heard its silver and street legal. Thats all I know. I can get more information if someone is interested.

so say I find one for sale in Canada, can bring it here, what would the process be? I know there's a huge deal if you ship cars in fron Japan but just over the border? I mean I know of other cars bought in Canada and just able to be inspected here like they were bought out of state.

of course they ship to US ports, but thats really not the point. you aren't allowed to bring in an unlegalized car. yes, you can fudge the invoice and they can't check all the containers but if they find out it will be shipped back to Japan at your cost. not something I would be willing to risk, what about you?
