ive always wanted one, now ive got one. the only problem is getting it home.

was referred to here by a buddy. looking at learning more about em along the way.

any input on importing would be greatly appreciated if any available... im hoping a few of the guys with RHDs have already done that...

There are tons of threads on RHD legality and to sum it up, no, it's not legal.

These threads usually turn into a flame fest with bad information....

I'd recommend searching.

MrParty

ive seen a few RHDs in the states. its just a pain to get em there. ive found a bunch of laws my problem is finding companies that do it and the best way to do it. when it hits 25 years old it can be imported as a classic and bipasses alot of crap.

I hope it's not as hard to import to canada as i'm trying to do the same thing

MrParty

From what i understand its easier to import to Canada. i believe its 15 years till considered classic. every company ive seen so far imports to Canada. i have yet to find one thatll go to the states.

Ive got Family in BC and have been contimplating that option as well.

Just ask the R32-R34 owners. Lot of hassle.

MrParty

And you'll still be looking over your shoulder for Customs Enforcement.

looks like its going to be more of a pain in the *** than what its worth. from what ive seen though cars thatre 25 yo are considered classics and can be imported without changing anyhting. unfortunately mine is a 94 and is only 18 yo ...


i appreciate the input. i may have to sell her... hopefully mazda will kick out a worthy Rx7 successor in the next couple of years... that way ill only be heart broken for a lil while haha

im deffinately not trying to break any laws by any means... not worth the consequences by any means...
