Hmmm, something tells me those are the "Optinal" performance wheels, you know for rallying. . .
Dang, it just occured to me. Ya'll know how the window switches are on the center console on the P10s, I always thought that it was weird that they weren't on the door. Duh, they're in the center so there don't have to be different door trim panels for LHD and RHD.

That is why JDM engines are so readily available. The laws are such in Japan that once cars are either X years old or have X number of km on them, they must undergo extremely expensive inspections where the garage doing the inspection will performa all repairs they deem necessary and just hand you the bill. You have no choice in the matter.
These JDM cars may make great track cars for The States if someone is willing to go through the BS with the government to assure them that the car is for racing and will never be used upon a public road. It also depends, of course, on the transportation costs.
