Seems everyone now is exploring this option especially with the high AUD. Having seen 2 of the cars brought in under this rule I can't blame people for considering it. That said, there is an opportunity for a well known and savvy USA based car salesman (no names mentioned) to seek and source the right year cars with the right credentials for AUD buyers and then market the balance of cars found to potential AUS buyers.

Being a skeptic, I'd suggest it would be a limited period as no doubt the Import Approval rules would change if a surge in cars being shipped and meeting the criteria occured. Could be wrong often am!

My other point is, without offending our USA friends......sometimes the overseas sellers approach to a sale and subsequent handover (N.B Generalisation) can lead to a different resulting expectation than what we'd thought! Can be the same in Oz too but timezones and distance can play a huge part in the smooth and smiley faced transaction.
