Very, very long story short - stay far away. You can search for more info, but this is a good primer:

Incidentally, reading through the expo thread now. People mention buying it & waiting until it hits 25 years to title. Since it has already been imported, that doesnt work. You’d have to buy, export & then bring it back in when it hit 25 years in order for that to work.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know when they first made the mega cruiser? It would be super cool to have one for a bit, but only if you could get it on the road.

They actually started production in 95, so technically you could have a 1995 here legally. You could also probably start import on an early 96 really soon and it would be legal by the time it would be in a U.S. port.

Great for hauling kegs, easy to park (4 wheel steering), challenging to not crowd the yellow line (RHD), and yes, they can get stuck.
