Not sure about Australia but I do imagine it would not be easy.


We did have a forum member who bought an FRS and shipped it to eastern Europe I believe. I could be wrong about the destination but he didn't want to wait for the gt86 to be released.

Right, everyone's import laws differ. Legally I think you can ship any car across borders, but getting it registered is another story. Cobb tuning shipped an R35 GTR to Utah when it first released, but it came with the condition that it would never be driven on the road (track use only).

Every country is different. Canada allows a lot more than the United States, so I wouldn't even know what the laws in Australia could be.
