Could this car even be imported to the USA.

I think there is a over 25 year category that this would fall into that bypasses a lot of the federal compliance laws.

Of course your state may differ.

I know about the 25 year rule. I imported a RHD 1983 Mercedes G wagen from Ireland. This car is only 21 years old.

How did I miss that? Sorry bout that.

If there is a compliance issue, look at the GTA LeMans. It's a prettier car anyway and had a cat-equipped engine.



Of course there's then the A610 which was also catted

I didn't realize that Canada has a 15 year rule, not a 25, which explains why this GTA is there.

We do like to moan in this country but when it comes to importing a car it really is ridiculously simple. If it's over 10 years old, all it needs is an MOT which is the same test every car over 3 years old has to pass once a year. Imports often require a rear foglight but otherwise you just need to prove the car's yours and the import tax was paid.
