I looked into importing a rare 914 from Germany a year or two ago.
Here in the states you have to hire an importing company to federalize it. They quote you a fee like $2-3K for a 914 and they have to import it for you. When they receive it on the docks, they sequester it away and make it USA and in my case, CA legal. They swap everything from the km/h tach to the windshield and engine stuff for emmissions. They said they could not even give me the stuff they removed...which was part of the reason to import in IMHO. Then I told them they car I was interested did not operate... whlie it was complete it just had not been started in awhile and I was not able to determine what was wrong with it to describe it further. They were speechless and didnt know how to proceed. I dont know, but maybe this car can be imported in a shipping container as parts? It might avoid tons of hassles with federalization requirements... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) |
