For sale rally VX.

you can import just about anything if you separate body from drivetrain and put it back together. registered as a kit car.

There is that, but it has to be done on the originating end which makes it very cost prohibitive. And I suspect the donor title might be a bit pricey as the VX was sold in the US. It'd cost you a lot less to buy a used VX here and build it up as the same rally car. Importing as a race vehicle would be the most inexpensive way to get it as long as the shipping is reasonable.

I still haven't received a quote from Seariders yet. I've filled out their online contact form, emailed their sales address and left a phone message. They don't seem too interested.

When I suggested the kit car route, I was referrihg to those other cute Japanese cars that Bulldog mentioned. Obviously you would want to import the VX as a track-only car, because it's not a really streetable vehicle.

Joe, Did you contact the Ft. Lauderdale office or St. Louis? I've only dealt with Ft. Lauderdale, and they've been quick about things. Not sure about the other office.

Fortunately I just got an email (and apology) from Seariders. I provided them with additional info for a quote and I'll post what they provide as soon as I have it.

Here's an update: Currently going back-n-forth with Seariders on a quote as it appears they're trying to package import brokerage in with the deal. We'll see how that goes as they're telling me the import info I have isn't correct. So I've asked them to educate me and I'll pass along whatever I learn for future reference.

Here's where I've gotten the best info to date on importing vehicles to the US: NHSTA Vehicle Importation Rules.
