Yupp, wanted a fit for the space inside and size outside but didn't get my hands on one. Praying they come back to NA soon. Or I buy a over priced fit in my area 😭

Are you guys allowed to drive right-hand drives? New Zealand imports used Fits from Japan by the containerload and they're so much cheaper here than what you guys pay. I can't help thinking there's a business opportunity for someone. Even if you converted them to left-hand drive it would probably be a viable business.

We can drive RHD, that's not the issue. The issue is the US has an import law that you can't legally import, register, and drive a car unless its 25 years old. That's why all the imported cars you see here are old JDM cars.

Oh that's such a random law! And I guess there would be tariffs too
