...Doug's story about that !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! got me thinking.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

What other imported cars could be found on eBay?

Well, I went searching, and found this: a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! that's in California, sold by a dealer in Utah.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

It's been in an accident, and likely a Canadian market car.

Of course, since it's listed as a 'bill of sale' vehicle under California law, it would probably be even trickier to get it registered.

But, who knows. Maybe someone can get it done.

Anyone else find any interesting imported cars for sale online or in person?

In Indonesia, well, we got every single Japanese imports, no matter is it shitty or insanely good.

But the weirdest import i ever saw in here is a Dodge Neon. Simply because well, we don't have Dodge dealership in indonesia, so that Neon is an import. And why the hell you want to import a neon?

You got 200% luxury tax here in indonesia if you import a car. That means that guy who import the neon likely to paid 40-50k USD to get that thing street legal here in Indonesia. Not including the cost of parts and maintenance. And why the hell anyone would do that?

You can buy a miata here for 50k, and that's much better than the neon.

Well, it's not quite the same, but when I went to Tesla's headquarters they were doing some electrifying (heh) experiments on some current-gen A-classes. There are some new ones over here being messed with by tesla, but I'm not sure how (or if) they're registered.

Dang, that's crazy. And I agree, the Miata is much better.

Gap would narrow if it was an SRT4, but the Miata is still better.

Maybe another potential Tesla/Daimler partnership, following the A-Class E-Cell, B-Class F-Cell, and smart ForTwo Electric Drive.
