Thanks. J

A guy from work imported a 07 I think it was this year. Or a 06 last year I can't remember. He basically stole it after all the costs but he did have to get a few things done to it at the shop. Can't remember but something with the bumper. I imported a WS6 last year, I know its different but its all the same process. Basically look into it and see if there is a recall/work you have to do to it, the costs associated with importing. It's basically a slap on the wrist aside to actually getting it to yourself. CAn't remember the webpage but a government one called 'riv' something that lists all the cars and any recalls, etc. Good Luck and hope that helped.
