Yeah, I can't remember which countries have it, but there are some LHD GT-4s.

you could always do a conversion as well. just find a 6gc in a junk yard get the firewall and as much of the dash pieces as possible. ask around. doggy has done several rhd to lhd conversions. but to be honest why would you want to change it? i think it would be cool to have a rhd in a lhd world.

I wouldn't worry about having a rhd. Never drove one but all the controls are the same a lhd only the shifter is now on your left side. I know a few local guys with rhd hondas and they say it only took a few hr.s in a parking lot to "re-learn" how to drive.
I personally would like a rhd not only because it's "neat-o" but most of the world is rhd. (stupid america trying to be different and draging other countries to do the same!) eh, it's not my decision which one you get though is it, it's yours. Just be happy with your choice!  )This post has been edited by frosty: Nov 28, 2007 - 11:45 AM --------------------  CLOSED on 25 acres! -shop coming soon.... |

if one person does the crash test does everyone that imports one have to do one or it just needs to be done that once. and would it be smart to get someting like a group of people to buy at the same time and they could all go in on the one to crash test. just a thought.

...hate to burst your bubble, but..no you cant. It wont be avaible untill mid to late 2009. First GT4 rolled off the assembly line in i think sept 1994. There for according to the RIV and ministry of transportation of Ontario aswell as canada, the car needs to be 15 years to the month old. IE late 2009...sorry bud.
And yes i do know this as a fact because i help my friend run his company *SMP motors* and sell RHD cars for him on the side. |
