This has been said a million times. 1. you can’t register an R32 or R34 in the states if you’re an American citizen, period. 2. you CAN register an R33 if you go through a PROPRIETARY crash protection process, but the proprieter is no longer in business. 3. Tweety is a British national, and as such is able to reg his R32 here… ---

If you have dual citizenship (and i think if you own property) you could reg the car in canada and drive it here on canadian plates. Breetime’s dad was doing this with a smart car before they were US legal. ---

one of my landscaping customers has dual citizenship and lives in one house up there for the summer and then one house down here for the winter. maybe I can talk an 75 year old man into registering a skyline that I will be driving all the time. or i’ll just wait till i’m 28. ---

Yeah, you can bring it in without much hassle. but registering it is not an option… unless you take the risk and VIN swap it… ---

The exchange rate was extremely favorable, I looked into the same. A couple years back you could get ones that needed alittle work for around $8k USD. Would’ve been hilarious. Plus there are various ways to register them in Ontario without being a citizen and they have privatized insurance my state farm agent advised me that they would cover me, but not to have an accident so we wouldnt have to deal with a hassle. ---

God I really don’t understand why they make cars like this impossible to own here. It’s your own damn risk if you drive the car and get into an accident. ---
