The lotus forum said the same thing, their quote was "you gotta pay to play"

Dealerships would not be happy if the average joe can buy a newer Honda civic for cheaper from another country
preventing a gray market is literally why we have the 15 year import rule (25 in the US)

Love the look of the Emira.

Harry Metcalfe is loving his. There have been several videos leading up to, and receiving his new car. Then he immediately takes it through europe to learn what it's like to live with. I love this stuff - no press car BS, his own true ownership experience.
