    Thumbs up Is it possible to ship these cars to US?

    I been a fan of Holden cars for years now. I always wanted one.

    Is there a way legally to ship these cars here? if Skyline was possible, how can one achieve that?

    Holden HSV from AU



    or Vauxhall VXR8 from europe

    you have it shipped as a rolling chassis and have the engine shipped right next to it. thats the easiest way i could think of since the emmision laws wont let the car come in the us with the set up it has

    I'd check with your state... PA is very picky. My friend bought a car from Canada and had a hell of a time getting it titled here. And it was a US built car and went there at some point after sold new.

    or you could just buy a G8 and mod it to look like those....be cheaper in the long run.

    Aren't they left hand drive?

    Just get it over here and register it as a GTO or G8.

    But there's an ocean between Australia and the US, unlike the little barbed-wire fence between Mexico and the US.

    Also cars tend to be larger and heavier than humans.

    Through the discovery of these facts my research has come to the conclusion that it might be a bigger problem the human trafficking, even transcontinentally.

    Ok, I slap a ram air hood with WS6 wheels on my Trans Am, with other mods off a WS6. Its not the same, its a clone... For collection and bragging rights, I rather have the real deal.

    the whole point is that its a real deal and not a clone. I want to be able to have a Right-Hand drive car, so I can fuck with people at the drive-thru and tolls.

    The way rotrex used to do the skylines is pull the engine and tranny and send it in a seperate crate, then get it registered as a kit car.

    Sounds like it'll be more of a hassle to you than the drive-thru operator. You're the one that has to lean over the passenger seat to pay and get your double cheeseburger.
