    I found this on BAT and thought I would pass it on.

    Signed.. and makes sense. Most cars made in the past 15 eyars are pretty standardized as far as emissions and safety go

    That is 10 more years of legal skylines! Or a 1996 Mexican Beetle/British Mini.

    THIS!

    It should be much easier to find a rust-free Mini for cheap that's 15 years old. If this goes through, I'd say it would have a possitive affect (for buyers) on the US Mini market.

    Hell yeah, I signed.

    I would like to wait no more years for a 94 ST205 Celica GT4.

    Which part?

    Currently, a non US market car has to be 25 years old, or more, to be imported to the US. This petition is an effort to get that age reduced to 15 years.

    It's funny, this was posted twice, and the reaction to these two identical threads was certainly not identical.
