thinking about selling my 2000 yellow on yellow Euro R
This is a one year only Switzerland model, only one in North America. And damn near impossible to find anywhere.
Car is a cool mash up of parts from around the world.
It's essentially a JDM ITR (including engine and trans), but LHD, with USDM front end, and a UK rear bumper. Of course badged a Honda.
I bought it out of Austria. Had a friend trailer it to the UK, put it in a container and onto a boat.
The car was owned by one family from new, have all books and keys, and a stack of service receipts from new.
Numbers matching motor.
Cannot legally import into the US. I don't really care if you do get it into the US as long as you pay me first lol Car is located just north of Toronto Ontario. Can ship anywhere in Canada no prob
Get in touch and we can talk
The car is not the cleanest in the pics, including the seats. I'll be scrubbing it up in the next few days.
Sorry about no user ID pic, I will post that ASAP as well

No problem dude! I've done the same.

I would have thought this would be legal to import to USA since it's LHD.

Is that dial on the left to move the headlights up and down?

zc911

the car is a euro market car not certified for sale in the USA. That means it would have to be 25 years old before you can legally import it.
canadian import laws are more lax, anything over 15years old is legal.

and yes. Headlights go up and down

dave7

Interesting. Too bad about that import thing. The emissions have to be almost the exact same as cdm/usdm.

That headlight thing is so cool. Never knew any ITR came with that.

zc911

some how the Real Time racing guys have imported JDM ITRs so there may be a way. How am i
not sure
the emissions look to be identical, but that doesn't matter.

Ya headlights are super cool. I am
not sure what markets got them

Wow.. this is a gem! I honestly would be extremely tempted to purchase if it was legal in the US.

You could probably get a wrecked USDM ITR and swap the VINS. Bam, legal.

whatever a buyer does is up them lol

That is generally a felony in almost every state. Easy way to get the car crushed and a felony conviction.

I have personally prosecuted a VIN swapped PY ITR, and each vin swapped/removed/altered is its own individual felony charge.

Exposure is exposure and the law is the law. He's just stating the facts to warn others of the potential repercussions of such an act. Especially since this thread exists as evidence. Bam, jail time. If we let even the slightest bit of fraud slide, well, slippery slope.

Petition the government to reduce the 25 year rule and have the law changed. A bit of a stretch I'm sure but trying to skate around it by performing illegal activities is not the answer.

Or move to Canada and enjoy our 15 year rule.

You are obviously a great person with endless wisdom sir.

The case I prosecuted was a PY stolen from a military members drive way in 2014 in Northern VA. I encountered the vehicle while on patrol in Richmond VA and saw a PY ITR parked in front of a gathering at a pizza shop. I went over to chat with them and make good community relations since I am a "Honda guy" and a cop - which is somewhat rare. I started looking at the car and saw that the VIN was covered on the dash and when he opened the door that the VIN stickers had been removed. My gears kind of switched and the car was a stolen PY with interior from a stolen NBP from Florida and the chassis stolen from NOVA. The motor was from a stolen GSR (MY 2000) also from NOVA and the transmission from an LS stolen from Maryland. The VINs were swapped from a wrecked DC4 and it looked very good and he probably would have gotten away with it. Needless to say there were (4) people who lost their cars that basically built this car, and the VIN swap was the root of it.

But you are correct, victim less crime and yes a great worker bee... mean while I am sure you do a lot for your community. Bravo

Ended up connecting him to the theft of an ITR dating back to 2004. His scheme revolved around VIN swapping. Totally victim-less... unless you are the victim. Shame on you for being so ignorant.
