I know Night and his business. He does not legally import cars. Also sounds like hes trying to con you out of an extra $1000 by claiming to get VIN stickers (probably also illegally)...lol what a joke. Funny how he says he will supply the proper paperwork to register a car in the US (saying it like he knows how), but then prompts you to call your local State Patrol to find out the real rules. The State Patrol will say you need Customs paperwork which Night will not supply nor have because it was not legally imported. I heard from various people he hides cars in his crates. Long story short don't buy unless you know what you are getting yourself into.

swift.. read the thing carefully... he NEVER said he will supply the proper paperwork to register the car. he will give you deregistration papers that will AIDE in registering.and bout importin legally or illegally hes jsut selling you a car thats not registered. sounds perfectly legal to me. how do you know its imported illegally? anyone can bring any car over to the states. its just a question of whether the customs will release it. its not like hes tellin you its registered when it isnt.

rookie freshen up on your importing knowledge. Also might want to check up on government requirements for registering imported cars and the legalization process. Long story short Night is shady, he doesn't do stuff the right way, and he's a liar. I know from experience, trust me.

learn to read carefully swift. ANYONE CAN BRING A CAR HERE. its just that the CUSTOMS WONT RELEASE THE CAR UNTIL ITS DOT AND EPA APPROVED. so you think motorex does all their modifications at japan gets it approved at japan and then imports it to US???NO THEY DO IT HERE. they import the car and modify and register it in the states. NIGHT just brought the car over. THATS it. AND hes selling it AS IS

SHOW ME WHERE NIGHT SAYS THAT HE WILL REGISTER THE CAR FOR YOu.. IF YOU KON HOW TO READ.. he said that that is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. READ FIRST. TALK LATER

I swear man these damn threads are really starting to piss me off. People argue with swift. Swift gets pissed. It goes on and on until someone gets fed up with it, or Smithsr comes in to help referee.

HEY HEY HEY NIGHT IS NOT A REGISTERED IMPORTER. ONLY A REGISTERED IMPORTER CAN IMPORT A CAR FOR RESALE! NIGHT IS NOT. SO HOW CAN HE IMPORT A CAR AND RESELL IT? HE CANNOT LEGALLY. Motorex imports cars. Oh wait they are an RI. So their imported Skylines can be released from port rather easily. They then go into a holding period. Once the bond clears Motorex can start modifying them to the US specs for resale. WHY? BECAUSE MOTOREX IS AN RI. NIGHT AGAIN IS NOT. SAME TO YOU BIG BOY READ FIRST TALK LATER. LEARN THE RULES FIRST TALK LATER.

rookie. just to clarify. That 180 is still in Japan waiting to be shipped. It is not here currently in the US. Want proof? I'll give you Night's phone # and you can call him and ask.

The only part I am vague on is the VIN. How can he get a VIN for a car that isnt US legal?? I am not up on the imprting laws. Plus how can you just "get" emissions complaince??? Wouldnt the EPA have something to do with this. You know...who cares.

no ones going to register it or make it legal for cheap....not worth it, you can find a nice 240 here in the US, probably better quality and actually legal.

rookie, it is illegal to import a car that you're not registered to import, and can you prove that its already here in the states?

No RI's to convert any S chassis because 1. the DOT no longer accepts similar nonconforming cars anymore, and 2. the SR is and will never be legal in the US at this point in time. So you can't take it anywhere to get legalized see? You would know this if you could spend the time stop whining to me and actually do some research. Like I just said that 180 is not in the States, being as Night is not an RI he can't legally import the car in the first place. Just accept it rookie, I owned you and Night is selling an illegal car.

"We will supply buyer with the de-registration paperwork from Japan that will aide in getting the car registered in the US. We will also get emissions compliance and a US VIN for this car for $1000 extra as a service."

They don't have the resources to do this. Rookie, what experience do you have importing cars, letalone experience with Night's operation? Unless you actually are night, you have less than swifty. Swift has a JDM car in the US without an RI, and it wont be crushed, so much for going through your services.

Can he take 1000? Yes. Anyone can take money from an uninformed customer :P Can he get a US VIN? I highly doubt it. I know Night, I don't know his connections, but I would not trust him for the life of me. Think about it...what is emissions compliance? He can take the car down any old emissions shop and have it tested. Say what? The car passed? Hey, looky here...emissions compliant paperwork! What a joke. Can he get a US VIN? Sure probably off any wrecked 240. All in all every move he makes is illegal and he lies straight faced.
