I looked into importing a while ago - Starions don't comply with front impact standards. You need to get someone who has owned one for a few years to move here and sell it to you if you want one - or wait til its 20 years (if it's from the USA)

Stupid law, doesn't let cars in that are 'unsafe' i.e. not on the governments list of cars with good frontal impact protection - unless they are REALLY old.


See http://www.ltsa.govt.nz/publications/in ... japan.html for the shitty front impact law
