Illegal to import? No. Illegal to tag? Technically, but there are a ton of loopholes. It's fairly easy to do in Florida, compared to some other states anyway.

OP, caR looks beautiful. Post some pics here with proof it's yours so the mods don't lock this up. GLWS.

Thanks but it's an eBay listing. It's out of HT's hands.

Yeah, it's legal to import for racing, or as a lawn ornament. I don't know about you, but the car's sitting on road with a plate.

This Integra is illegal to register as a road vehicle federally. If the car is driven on the road, regardless if Florida registers it legally statewide, ICE will eventually find it and crush it.

Hint: Customs/EPA authority supersedes state DMVs.

It can only be federally registered for the road if it was imported correctly at the time of entry, which I guarantee it was not. The next buyer is going to get screwed.

What a waste and risking a rare and beautiful car.

I've owned it for 5 years registered and all. It's been here for 9 total years.
