hey guys, this may be a very stupid question, but either way im going to ask it. in less than a year i will be out of school and hopefully working in the automotive field. my dream car as like many of you on here is the celica gt four. what i really need is someone or some people to help shed some light on how to get one over here. sence it is my absolute dream car, i really do not care how much it would cost. the only thing is, i dont want to have the dot take it and make it all enviroment friendly. if anyone could help me get going in the right direction that would be great.

if you purchase a lhd model you would be able to register it here in the states, the only thing that is holding it back is the fact that the rhd model was never crash tested under DOT and the lhd celica model was, cuz if you think about it if you swap in an awd tranny a 3s motor and do a rhd conversion its still legal because it started off as a lhd. All you need is the proper paperwork, when i did that research that was for the rhd model not the lhd.
