I just thought this through, and while this will open the door for some interesting vehicles, especially in the area of small cars, there would be quite the language barrier.:rofl: Also, getting a certified cheque from the bank in pesos.

^ most of those cars aren't in mexico, they link to overseas car dealers like India, Australia etc, sounds like a Mexican stolen kidney scam to me, like said above the only thing i'd buy from Mexico would be a brand new Tsuru :D

or get one of these if you like to waste $.. 'Mastretta MXT'

Why you guys wanting a Tsuru?

It's basically a stripped down Sentra, and you don't even get the independent rear suspension.

I just got back from Mexico last saturday. While I was there I saw so many sweet eruopean makes I was wondering this very thing! There are some pretty great "smart car" sized cars that would be great on fuel. I even saw a new euro Hilux Truck, which doesn't even look similar to my new Tacoma.

Don't worry too much. You Donkey's value may not go down. It's just now people will have a lower, more base model option. It's called the burrow.
