Us Import Of Is200 (california)

[prairie243]

I own an IS200 in France. I have moved to the US (California.) Can anyone give me some advice on whether or not I should try to import the car?

What duties/taxes must I pay? and What changes do I need to make to the car?

Thanks!!

all these questions need to be asked to the goverment

only they can give you specifics

if the car you have is bone stock

then i wouldn't bother trying to get it here

as the shipping would be a few grand and the IS 300 is a nicer engine to have

so it is worth selling it and buying another here as the cars are also cheaper

but taxes and duties are up to the goverment

and how long you are here and where in france

California may be tough to get it CARB certified.
