it costs more to bring them here, than buying one locally or in the states. they are pretty much the same price,so why not stick with a LHD's?

Like others said, there's really no point unless you're waiting for the type r version to be imported

NSX's resale value is pretty good in Japan too.
Supras and RX-7s are more expensive in Canada. But those cars are like Mustangs and Camaros here, so they depreciate quite a bit. So if you bring them here, it's cheaper.
That is not the case with NSX.

Those "talks" are just rumors that pop up. I doubt that would happen.
15yo rule isn't bad, be happy it's not 25... for those who import. Few more years and we can start importing R34's and S15's.... awesomeee.

i was just taking a quick peek at the japanese used car sites and there are actually LHD NSX's in japan! a japanese colleague said at one point when the exchange rate was more favorable, it was cheaper to get a north-american spec NSX and import it back to japan
