I probably would run into some costly problems here I know that in Latvia registering US car would make you lots of problems - certificate costs are about 1500euros. In Estonia - the last i heard was - if the car WASNT made in EU or wasnt relised in EU - its not posible to register it AT ALL. Here in Lith - certificate costs about 150euros and you are free to go So no big deal Btw - i bought a Toyota bB too from japan - will be using it as a parts car for my Xb + i bought another Xb 2006 Maroon color - will be selling it once it gets fixed here is the bB pics:  And here is my Xb once again  -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...

Price would be bit higher than in Latvia probably (looked it up ..around 2600 eur).. Anywho I guess I could register the car in Lithuania, I would need to visiti you guys every two years for technical inspection I guess, but that won't be that bad
