GT4, i want one Options

can you guys tell me what it takes to get a gt-4 into the united states?

GT-4 does not appear on EPA/NHDOT list as a vehicle that is allowed to be driven in the states regardless of what state it is. It is true that every state's emission laws are different but with respect to car registration it has to be registered in the state you are driving it in unless you have a relative who is willing to register vehicle in his or her name and pay insurance etc etc in their state. That does not answer question that I raised about accredited institution certifying car for road use.

Accredited institution is not joeshmoesaiditsgonnawork.net or sureyoucanregisterthisjdmcarthatisnotonimportationlist.com

I need something credible that ends in .gov and has dot in its name, which is the agency that handles car registration and will allow me to get proper paperwork to file for registration.

There are documents which will allow you to petition agencies to allow car importation if you are a registered certified importer. Vehicle would have to satisfy all rules and regulations of course and pass crash test and yada yada.

There are documents to petition agencies for a "race" license but vehicle must have been built as a race car to begin with. Such approval allows vehicle to be imported for race use only and must be removed from country in a year and must not be driven on public roads and you would be required to provide documentation of every move.

There are documents to petition agencies for a "show" license but again that implies that your vehicle will be shipped out of country in due time and can not be driven more than 2500 miles while reporting to agencies with your wereabouts.

There are documents to register a car as a kit car but car must be built as a kit car from the start and pass all rules and regulations before being issued a vin number et cetera.

There is a rumor on the street that there are documents to import a gt-4 and register it here for 3000 dollars but so far I can not find them and until I do I have to take those rumors with a ton of salt.


Edit: exactly what Lagos said.

Paying off someone implies that you are bribing an official which can result in far worse consequences than vin swapping.
