Importing discussion

Super funny that this section exists now that I effectively have zero tourings. :(

If people want I'll write up the whole process with pictures/directions pertinent to the Baltimore terminal.

I have talked to a friend that imported mine and he said its around $2500ish to get it here and paperwork completed but thats to the east coast. I dont know any more info then that as far as the paperwork or shipping part. I have one here in the states for sale. Im in florida which is literally the farthest it could possibly from you lol but its in the states fully imported and a FL title in my name. its the grey one in the touring picture section getting painted. its almost done if you wanted any more info just send me a PM

Roguetoaster (on here) brought all of his over, including the one that I currently own.

He said it was a pretty easy process, paperwork wise, but naturally it's infinitely easier for those who live by port cities. I'm sure he could share some more specifics on how he managed it. He managed to get 3 good ones here, so i'd say he had it figured out pretty well.

After a few years out of the E30 world, SWMBO has given me permission to return.
I, of course, plan on pushing my luck :devil: and am looking into a touring, which I've always wanted. So, let's discuss the process of getting a touring to the States. I'll of course keep my eyes open for existing ones here on cl etc, but I think I'm going to look at bringing one over fresh from Europe as my best option.

I've read the jalopnik article from a couple of years ago. I've reviewed European ebay and car selling websites. How did people here who have done it get it done? Did you work with an importer or do all the paperwork etc yourself? Are there trusted resources?
