If I understand the 20B cosmos story correctly (this was from Brad the owner) it was originally imported by either a diplomat or company rep that did not have to deal with the normal importation issues that we have.

I know that there are a few (like less than 10) that are in the US legally.

If anyone knows of a backdoor or company interested in importing them I do think that there is a small market

me included

actually to get a car imported here is not that bad only thing you have to do is buy it in Japan take the engine out send it to the states and then send the chassis separetly then put it back together here and register it as a kit car. You will have some problems with the emision in some states but that takes the need for 10 cars for crash testing.
