Is this the only TME in the states? first one I've heard of! Beautiful car, just amazing. Not that I would even consider driving this on the streets, but is it impossible to get it registered to drive normally?

As far as I know it's the only TME RS in the US, but I know there are some TME GSR out there. With it being imported under a race exemption I highly doubt I could register it.

Congrats on owning one of the greatest pieces of Evolution history I have owned 4 Evos as well and the RHD IV was very unique! I would love a V or VI one day and hope that they can be imported under the classic car exemption once they are over 25 years old

Depends on the offer

I got a temp transport tag for the week and was able to get the car out after getting back to Vegas. Here are some pics from someone with some actual camera skills unlike myself.

Been there and done that from a diferent part of the world and a diferent car i wanted to bring a European spec Porsche Carrera 4 Cabriolet 10 years ago when I was stationed in the UK. It was a headache, I had to change the bumpers, door reinforcements, leyends on mirrors, emissions, ECU remaping,licesne plate holders, parking lights, alarams sounds for seat belts, winshield, and the list goes on and on

I decided to sell it and get a different car. Your car is sweet though, I personally would rather have a Evo 8 or Evo 9 in the US because you don't have to hassle but since you already went through I congratulate you for your effort, now just enjoy it.
