Foreign Cars Now Available For Import...

Now that they have turned 25 years old (well, in a matter of 48 hours or so), these car models from 1989 can now be brought stateside--legally!

My favorite is of course the Nissan Skyline but also of note is that we now gain another year of Land Rover Defenders available for import!  Still want one in canary yellow as my dream offroader to tool around town in....

The others on this list do not exactly fill me with desire, though maybe they do for you.  If so, get out your shekels and off to your local government entity or licensed importer to bring them your way...

Collection of Group B Cars Back in Action...

 Over in England a number of classic Group B rally cars got together for some good asphalt flogging.

From Audis to Nissans all had a notable history behind them.  The Nissan 240RS interests me the most and it was still set up for gravel vs. tarmac and must have been a handful.  The 240RS is actually a ride that the English reggae/pop band UB40, famous over here for their hit "Red, Red Wine", sponsored in the 1980's.  One of the band's managers has recently purchased the vehicle and is treating it properly--getting it out on the road where it belongs.  Former Michelle Mouton, John Buffum, and Stig Blomqvist cars were also present with some of their American livery (1000 Lakes Rally and Pikes Peak).  More at the link below.
