    the sale is in the USA, which has different importing laws, it's a lot easier to import Japanese cars to the US than Canada. Could be legit.

    nope, that doesn't work either. Canada has a list of cars that can/can't be brought into the country. One rule "car must be 15 years old" is a big rule. Importing a car is where it was first registered, not where it was last registered. Sorry guys be we gotta wait for these vehicles.

    If you wanna be really sneeky, why not go to Japan, find the car you like, buy it. Then you cut it in half, get the issue as "scrap metal" ship both pieces to Canada, reassemble and then issue the car as salvage.

    That would be sweet. But you are going to pay for a carthat will probally never work out in the end.
