and I thought the CL was only in the us. may be he got it transported there. Cost to move a car from the us to korea is around 10k. Plus the taxes to drive a foreign car is out rageous. another reason why 95% of the people their only drive korean brand cars.

shipping isn't that expensive. if you've lived here in u.s. or canada for more than1 year with the car, you won't have to pay duty. shipping only cost around 3-5k, i know this cause my roomate is about to ship his celica back and he looked into it. i saw lots of imports there... celicas, is300's,silvia's even preludes mostly lft. side drive. oh... the legend was brought to korea under the daewoo and was called the acardia...

It was there, then it wasn't. Do the edit and quote buttons on your 1st post look strange to you too?

Please let that be soon. I want american dollars!!! This Canadian buck is worthless, the government is robbing us blind with all these taxes, and yet the economy still sucks...they can't even run the country without running up a debt!!!

The only good thing is our medical...but whoopdie doo...I'm healthy...what do I need medical for?

A girl I "knew" in college whose father was a diplomat, brought his Jeep Cherokee over to Bosnia... So, if you have connections you can bring cars over the pond... I also hear storoes on the mercedes newsgroup, that Brittish people in the vicinity of American military bases see Mustangs, and Camaros all the time. Back in 61, when my dad came home from Germany, he brought over an older than dirt Mercedes. I had a Brittish professor who drove his Brit spec Rolls Royce (complete with brit tags) all over the place....

See, this is the problem with Americans.
They think that when you go over the border at the west coast you'll end up at the east coast..........

And when you drive all the way up in Alaska you might end up near the Mexican border....

Hence our lousy foreign policy. Then again, Europe has problems too... There was a shooting rampage in a German school. I thought Europeans were supposed to have such superior morals? When you look at Americans you see yourselves.
