I'm pretty sure they were but were the 6th gen gt4's sold in canada? I have to find one. I'd love to have the 3sgte but I think I would want it in it's original body. Plus the awd would be nice biggrin.gif biggrin.gif tongue.gif biggrin.gif

I'm gonna try to save up some money w/ a second job and if I find one then I'll try to sell my celica and buy the gt4. All the readind i've been doing in the forced induction section has given me gt4 fever.

There actually was or is a silver one for sale in FL for $19k .. overpriced yes.. and being sold by evolution imports they title all there cars thru loop holes in Fl .. car is considered a kit car i believe but not 100% sure ..

Besides mine (midest car noted in previous post) and NH car there is at least 3 more real st205's in NA.

one in Calgary (same guy who got mine) , black one that was sold on EBAY 3 or 4 years ago in NJ but who knows where it is now , and supposedly a silver one in WA but have never seen it ..

when i was towing my car home ran into kid at McDONALDS in Billings ,MT that said they picked up a friends JDM S13 in WA and importer had a silver st205 .. dont really care either way ...

i can say one thing about titling .. I have a friend who has a blue 94 jdm mr2 and he has had car for over three years been pulled over 7 times and never once i say ONCE was the rhd or his crappy vin swap (which he didn't do ) ever called into question .. Now he lives in Indiana and BMV laws are very very easy compared to most states .The car had to have a county sheriff impsection twice and passed without issue .. Now i am not saying if you get a st205 do a vin swap but there is no DOT police .. You deal with local authorities only so getting into US is the bigger hurdle .. title any way you want and good luck but understand the risks .. dont be ignorant..

my car was listed as parts car but still had to go thru 5 min inspection at border and had zero issues even through car was driveable and overall complete .. all they cared about was drugs, produce, and any hidden terrorists i might be smuggling in .. paid 200 in taxes and had paperwork done and cleared before i even hit border ..

now i am 32 and plan on using mt st205 as my collector car / hobby car .. would not reccommend it as a daily driver and even more so if your younger .. the RHD will be tricky for younger inexperienced drivers and being younger cops will go out of there way to investigate rhd . plus when we are younger we tend to have car exposed more out on street and that leads to issues with people knowing about your and will tell their shady buddy they really want your rhd car and that could lead to possible theft issues ..

i would love to see more st205's in US ..good luck and happy importing ..
