Well, the legal channel is always your best be, but be willing to drop about $10,000 or so....really...I've already researched it as I wanted to import a T16 for myself, it would cost about $1200 - $1500 for the shipping alone, then a certified & registered U.S. standards conversion company has to pick the car up from the dock, you're not even allowed to touch it they told me, they need to perform all the work, bumpers, door bar rienforcements, lights, smog accesories, ect., for that conversion they would charge you around $10,000-12,000, thats why I just decided to forget it, but recently I've been thinking of importiong one to Mexico, I have alot of friends down there, & driving it across the border & register it as a Mi16, other than that...I think your stuck unless anyone else has any ideas????
