Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
A company down in Miami is notorious for selling illegally imported cars. They tend to scrub their website once the cars are sold.
Here is an example of a 1999 Silvia sold in 2020 -

They tend to list the illegal cars on Craigslist. I've seen Sivia, RX7, Supra, all well under the 25 year law.
You call and ask if the car has been imported via the Show and Shine and they hang up. They know what they are doing.
Reminds me of the bonehead who tried to defraud a seller on Craigslist by misrepresenting his illegally imported R34. If youβre gonna break the law, donβt be an asshole by flaunting it or youβre gonna get busted.
GTR? No officer, this is an old 240sx with a skyline GTR body kit, i swear!
I lost all my GTRs with all my guns in a tragic boating accident.
Top tip: if you're going to spend the big bucks to buy any sort of imported vehicle, don't buy them from a Florida importer. You're just asking for trouble. Any one remember Rivsu Imports?
Can we lower the 25 year rule down to 5 years.
There was a guy in the U.S. selling a '00 FD in one of my RX7 groups about a year back. Claimed it was totally legal because it had a Florda title. He also wanted like $90k for it IIRC, which made it extra sad/funny.
That post got deleted pretty quick.
None of this stuff is really all that crazy, just a summary of stuff that has been shared on various Facebook groups. One big list of cars seized near Sacramento and a big summary of sketchy importers like Montu Motors, Black Ops Performance, and Rivsu Motors. The big thing is right at the end talking about potentially imminent seizures.
AdamLZ added to most wanted list.
I think it's such a waste of resources to bother tracking these down though. Not only is the rule itself doing no good to the public, but they will be legal in just a few years when they turn 25 years old.
