There was a thread just a little while ago. You can also search the Type R forums for gray market vehicle.

Wait. So something is only a felony if you get caught?

Oh, and genius, you posted your RI license plate number and your phone number on here.

ROTFL! I hadn't even noticed that. I can't believe this thread hasn't been locked yet.

Though I might wish some cars from overseas were legal to import and register here, if they haven't passed safety here or the engines aren't legal here or the lighting isn't DOT approved then I see where the government is at least coming from.

At least you can easily replicate an EG6 here using a USDM Civic hatch and an engine swap. The car I'd really want was just plain never available here.
