It's a grey loophole R34 from just before they were made illegal and grandfathered in, I spoke to him for you and asked him how much he'd sell it for if ever and he said that if it transfers ownership it is deemed illegal and therefore he won't be selling it at all or at least until it's 25 years old or the EPA and NHSTA **** off and die.

I think he bought it when it was brand new, so I reckon he spent about $60,000 getting it here. At least. If it was transferable it'd probably sell for at least $75,000. If you know a way to legally transfer ownership, he says he'll at least listen to you
How can I make this work? halp

Move to Canada, then buy it. Done and Done. It'd be worth it for such a sweet car.

Mark, call AAM, they prob. know some one that owns one.

Meeting up with Khoi this week for him to take measurements on my nismo for his aftermarket H pipe. Suppose we can discuss then.

Edit: Couldn't wait. Pulled in Khoi on facebook and also hit up a lawyer in my family (who definitely gave me the "eye roll" but said he'd check out my options)

You will probably not be able to get insurance either.....Even Bill Gates had to wait 25 years to get his 959 Porsche legal.

Is this a Motorex car?

takjak2 10-07-2012 09:57 AM
I know where this is :D

dmhenderson 10-07-2012 12:32 PM
Beginning to lose hope but I'm going to make the guy chase me away with a broom before I leave him alone

Edit: Starting to get the feeling that he never really had any intention of selling it but sometimes it's nice to have car nerds on the internet offer you kingly sums of money for something you own and treasure.

Mark, wow man, if you can get it, get it. Im pulling for ya.

dmhenderson 10-07-2012 12:54 PM
I think USAA will insure it too because they deal with so many military people

eastwest2300 10-07-2012 12:58 PM
Yes they do, I dont see why they wouldnt. I didnt know the car was illegal.

dmhenderson 10-07-2012 01:31 PM
They're illegal to import apparently but the ones that are already here are grandfathered in.

You just can't sell them and they're hard to insure.
