Of course..I`d love to take my four around the states. I was just curious as to why somebody would want a RHD car in a country that uses LHD...It just seems to be making life hard for yourself for no apparent reason...but if its just to be different then fare enough....was just asking.

great new pics, congrats!
glad to see #2 in the states of RHD conversions, I find it ironic that they are both on teal ST hatchbacks (or in my case what once was teal) This post has been edited by playr158: Mar 25, 2008 - 8:09 PM |
