Not to worry. The ad specifically says it’a a “1900 Nissan Silvia” and therefore beats the import rule.

It’s because the people we put in office know what’s best for us....or at least their version of what’s best for us.

Car is located in SoCal and has a clean US title.

So how does that work? Are you really able to get a title for something like this without immediately raising some kind of red flag at the DMV?

depending how dumb the DMV is yes; doesn’t make it legal and when you crash it (you’re bound to) you’re fucked.

It probably has a “Show & Display” title, meaning it can only be driven a certain number of miles each year and I believe only to certain destinations (like car shows).

Then re-import it into Canada. Legally.

once it’s on US soil, even if it’s stashed over seas and brought back, i do believe it’s still illegal

I think there’s some sort exemption for military personnel, that if they have a personal use car overseas they can bring it back for personal use, but they can’t sell it.

Because Nissan didn’t want to submit it for NHTSA testing. Nissan is at fault in this instance.

It isn’t a “US title”, because there’s no such thing. It would be a California title. States will generally title and register anything that passes basic safety and emissions tests, but federal law trumps state law on this issue. The feds say it can’t be in the country, so it can’t be in the country.
