Anything you "hear" from a friend or some other third-party source is usually false. Someone would have said something if it was true. Keep looking at those GT-R's.

took the VSA course recently.. asked the professor about this issue.. he said the VSA is looking into it and possibly ban it due to safety reasons.

I believe the ban is in Ontario.

Unless BC is banning it too, then I don't know anything about that

I'm not sure if they're still under it as of now, but Quebec has a ban on all INCOMING JDM cars for like 180 days. That means you can't bring anymore in, but anyone still driving them can keep them. Ontario wants to follow suit.

banning rhd vehicles for safety reasons is a fascade. they're trying to kill the competition in the used car market.

hopefully this ban dosen't take affect here in BC. i really want a true EK9

Stupid just to have a ban in one Province. They can't stop people from buying in another Province and bringing it back.

car dealers dont like competition, so some rich people (eg. jim pattison) got some pretty influencial politcal people to start the idea of banning things.
