Can You Import a Car As An Individual?

The Thing About Cars

Oct 30 2023 • 31 mins

Keis, Corvettes and Cappuccinos

We discuss what it takes to bring in a car to the USA that is not already sold here by the manufacturer. What if you want to bring in that Lada, Nissan Skyline, Porsche 959, Honda Acty or Suzuki Cappuccino into the the USA? Is it better to order up a new one, get a used one or get an "antique" one? Can you do this yourself or should you get a broker? What legal stipulations must one follow to get it through customs? Does it take Bill Gates levels of money to do this? In our trivia question, we find out what was the only year without a Corvette? Misty admits to being late, but the test came back negative...
