1. yes16 Says: I love this car and I would like to import it from Europe, obviously Germany. Any ideas how much it is going to cost and where to start?

Thanks so much for the information.
2. PMack Says: You're part way there - you've told us where the car is coming from, where is it going to? Big difference if it's NY vs California or Hawaii, or Canada or ....you get the idea.

Keep in mind too - you may well have emissions and/or safety regulation issues if it's US bound, you should find all that out before you even start this process. Then also consider that if you have problems with it you won't find a mechanic that knows the car if it isn't sold where you live.

Sorry if I'm raining on your parade, but you have to consider all these things before you spend many thousands to purchase and then try to import and register the car where you live.
3. William K Says: Well there are a few ways to do it. One is to find a car importer. Now a day the cars made in Europe do meet the safety standards and emissions but you might have to have a few minor things done. You might also be able to call VW directly and order one for yourself in the states.
4. djaca70 Says: I take it you read the article in Car and Driver? Go through that importer, and take a second mortgage on the house. DOT and NHSTA will not let it through if it is bone stock. If they did, it would be a garage queen, much like the Skyline.
