Importing a 2012 Honda Civic Type R
What is the likelyhood of me being able to find and import one of these? http://www.insideline.com/honda/civi...22-debuts.html

The car is nice and it'd be cool to have such a rarity in my own garage.

^ I'm assuming you live in USA so...The Civic Type R is already around that $35,000-$40,000 range.It's not even worth it,trust me.You'll need to buy more than one too.

That's absurd. Government is annoying. Thanks for the help though. Cool to see the people on this forum are helpful
