damn that sucks. The guy seems like he knows what he’s talking about though, so im thinking he’ll probably get something done in his favor.
i didnt read the whole thing, but people have to expect this shit. they all know theyre breaking the law, and then turning around and crying foul as soon as they get caught.
didnt it say everyone though it was legal since they did test the r33. however it was later confirmed that testing needed to be done for the r32 and 34 for them to be valid. Either way when you buy it you know ur gonna be hassled down the road
the only logical explanation to me would be that they are trying to destroy the heart of the tuner movement. They woulda done the same to supras cept that they were made for usdm too. It sorta makes sense that by removing tuner cars in the us they could sway the buying market towards domestic vehicles rather than imports which are 9/10 times better in everyway…
ICE… stimulating the economy by removing skylines since 2006
Either that or some government officials wife fucked a dude driving a skyline while he was out saving the world.
Just hope the same shit doesn’t get pulled here in ontario. Too late for Quebec!
i dont think the us government gives a shit that 90 people arent buying a ford
ps you sound like a huge fanboy
Fanboy? i LOVE skylines… i’m just worried that by the time i get to buy an R34 ( in a few years once the 15 year rule allows it) all right hand drive and import vehicles will be gone or outlawed.
To be honest i’m not a fukin ahmed and hating on any establishment or government… I actually support them in like 90% of what they do. I’m just fukin pissed that they might be fuckin with us now.
Shit sucks!
The word Skyline is enough reason for the US GOVERNMENT to not want them. They want people to buy US made cars probably. Have you not seen the bumper stickers floating around that said “Out of a job yet? Keep buying Foreign”
Fuck gvmt. I’m for Communism. baha.
VOTE BUSH!
I’m gonna put a Skyline badge on my car.
haha. Kinda sad that this is happening to people. but its one of the reason’s i steered clear of skylines. Plus insurance. ahha
insurance is dirt cheap for skylines…
not for me
we both live in brampton…i can see why lol… but for some reason a skyline would be cheaper then my 180
lolz
I dunno, I think it’s pretty gay. Not gonna get into this but… They better not ban anything until I get my FD here in a couple years after that I couldn’t care less.
The US gov are nazis bent on ruling the world and spreading their imperial agenda and skylines are in their way, it’s like bombing a country but instead its trashing a car.
This all started at pearl harbor…
haha you made a funny…hope your statement isn’t serious.
You’d think the HLS would concentrate more on busting illegal immigration or human trafficking…Nope…This is a complete waste of manpower and resources. If I was American I’d be pissed that my tax dollars are going to waste on this crap while they’re 14 trillion dollars in debt!
Oh and it’s good to see that he’s sticking it to them.
“I was contacted by ICE a week after the first visit and then notified that my vehicle was found to be illegal and that it was going to be seized, at that point they stated I could not alter or sell my vehicle and that I had to wait for them to issue the warrant to seize the vehicle before I could do anything at all.”
Two weeks later…
“I made it very clear that my intent was to retain ownership for the time being and export the vehicle from the country, and that I had already made arrangements for a sale to be conducted as well as export of the vehicle.”
He’s going to prison.
