Though long out of production, would love the opportunity to purchase either of these.

Don't know about the Honda, but there's a couple CSLs in the US. Also would have loved to have this as well; HSV w427.

Surely you're kidding...BUT Mahindra was THIIIIIIS close to making it into the country, but so many problems caused it to not happen, and a lot of people that put money into it before it even happened lost their money, it's a disaster...

If i was a billionaire/millionaire I would say pagani zonda. I still prefer that over the huayra.
For mid price car I would say the new lotus exige s. Because of the airbag issue it will only come to america as a track only car and cost 100,000 plus.
I am a fwd fan so for cheaper cars I would have to go with the renault megane RS. I just love this car and it was faster around the ring than the bmw 1M.

Always had a fascination with these. Pretty much a British Viper... bare bones (no ABS, P/S, or traction control), lightweight (sub 2,500 lbs) and with a healthy V8 - 420 hp. Sounds unique too.

Someday, an RS6 Avant+
For the USA....... I can buy these here in germany
RS6 Avant..... 500 plus HP grocery getter.
S402 Legacy GT (not really faster than mine, but killer looks) I can get it, but it would be cost prohibitive ($50K plus for the car, then shipping it here).
Peugeot RCZ.... Very sexy

Mitsubishi Pajero
Known as the Montero here. they discontinued it here, we never saw this newest version on our shores. Off-road capability, family SUV, at around 30K less than a Land Cruiser.

That car wasn't half the car the W427 is. The body is only the same because the G8 is a rebadged Commodore & the W427 is based on the HSV GTS, which in turn, is an adaption of the Holden Commodore.
This is (or was) the most powerful & quickest car to come out of Australia a couple years ago, and had a factory-backed supercharger available for the Vauxhall VXR8 Bathurst version that up'd the power to 550+. We're talking serious CTS-V contender here.
