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.

I mean if you have $250,000+ laying around,be my guest.The normal Type R is in the $35,000 range,but the MUGEN RR version is around $60,000 and multiply that by let's say 4...

Cause the goverment will need a few so they can crash them to see if it passes the crash tests.

foreign cars can be imported into the U.S. 25 years after the production date, in Canada the wait period is 15 years.

^25 years...In 25 years,no one will be driving gas powered cars.Hell even race cars will be electric using some sort of energy restore system with 2 engines.

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