I've been in a confusing time lately. I've been wanting to get a 6GC for ages. But I ran out of time before my job and had to settle with a 5gc.

Anyway, I was thinking, this thing will be paid off in a year and a half, which then will be 1 year short of when the 1994 ST205 GT-Fours can be imported...would it be better to wait the year and save up any cash I could and import a GT-4? Or just get a St/GT/something FWD?

Im thinking the GT-4 just because AWD would kick ass, and actually give me incentive to modify the car...

do u know how much it cost to import a car? (taxes, shipping, legalization ect)

thats not including insurance,....or getting it for that matter. its not easy to insure and imported car. yeah its possible, but i believe ull pay through your ass tho.

y dont u see people rocking gt-4s? because its expensive....and nearly impossible to do legaly

Another reason why you dont see people rocking Gt-4's is because they arent avail in North America, and they cant be imported yet. wink.gif

Yea, most just take a 6gc and use an older gt-4 motor like a 5th gen cus these were available and swap it.

once they are legal in canada i'm 100% sure u will find them from importer sites... there are quite a few importers around canada...

it's hard to tell how much they will go for tho... if i were u, i would get the 94 gt-4... hope u get get it insured tho!

importers will surely have them here when the time comes.. plus they do all the paperwork to get it registered to drive. my guess is that they'll run at about $12000 and up since the ST185 are currently running at ~$7000

^^ I was thinking the same thing... if I get a good enough job, I'm saving up and buying a GT-4 as soon as I can import one
