The cl is built in ohio and it would cost way too much to import a domestic car

also, look at the pic. it has the steering wheel on the US side. btw: it would be awesome to have a jap cl with right side driver and H22 jspec stock

do you have rims? if you do then depending on the size of the rim and the side wall series will make your speedometer off.
