    Of I remember right from the super beatle days, there was a large tax they put in place to prevent this.

    That was twenty some of years ago though, so no promises.

      Yeah. Importing a 25 year old car requires 0 effort, 1% price at border - before fucko took office. I have owned a few Japanese imports I brought in. But newer than 25 years old, you require paperwork showing safety, emissions, etc., plus big taxes.

      Good news is you can finally get a 2001 Super Beetle Ultimate Edition from Mexico next year. 😀🇲🇽 (they’re called Vochos down there. My girlfriend and I call them V8s… V+“ocho”)
