i believe it goes it goes like this.

X foreign import has everything in compliance with US law

X foreign import gets to the US

X foreign import has performance parts installed in the US which some makes it legal.

if they built it as such then they have to get it ok'd all over again so it can come to the US

i'm guessing this is why the TRD griffon street cars aren't coming to the us

Do you know if they actually put the order in? I put down a deposit for one last week, however the dealer tells me that they are still waiting on a car to be allocated to my region before they can put an actual order in.

Would allocations come at different times for different regions? My dealers is still telling me that there's no allocations in his system. Maybe I'll call up some other dealers in the area and see if they can get it.

No idea about your ends but dude I spoke with said something about putting in an order for production. My guess is probably that the cars are at your nearest Toyota plant waiting to be dressed up.
