everywhere else has gray markets, and over here we can't even keep gray marketed skylines. they're seizing the cars...f*ck.

Guy at work has a old 240, bought a skyline front clip that was due to be exported. Took the whole motor and everything else to build this 240.

He's tired of the project now and thinking about selling it but he said the guy only had 3 days before Customs was going to take it. He opted to Chop it up instead....sad story!

Luckly in my mystery land .. haha! grey market vehicles here are not Illegal. no law that they can confiscate the cars if it was imported trough grey market

only illegal is the import cars that is already used from another country to this country.

If everything you do is so "legal", why are you afraid to post where you live?

Let me clear some things up Steve.

1. Yes, back in 2000 (or was it 99...people new nothing about MV's) other then ads etc. I remember riding it around with my TLR plate because I couldnt get it registered. Can't tell you how many people asked what the heck it was

Ended up selling it to the importer of high end watches in AZ

2. Come on now.... Yes it went from a 750 to a 1000 to the new 312 which is a hell of a bike but the design bike still looks pretty much the same.

I owned a bike shop (as I'm sure you've read elsewhere) and appreciate each and every one. From my old RD400 Daytona to my first sportbike in High School. Had Muzzy build my ZX7R back in 1990 and built a zx7rr in 94.

I love them all and I'll have a pretty rare MV pretty soon to park in my Game room but lets face it...time for a makeover. Aren't you the one with teh Red and Silver one? I tried to buy that Batman Edition one that was on Ebay a few months ago but the guy was CRAZY!!! $40K, he was dreaming!
