Japan allows LHD, but VAG sells their cars in Australia, England, some Asian states....and Japan. They have RHD in their portfolio. A JDM Audi would be a car produced in Germany, for the Japanese market, right hand driven.

Pretty interesting since they didn't mention needing a crash test. Assuming the regular A/S4 Avants suffice, they only mention EPA testing.

That 22-B is here 100% legal. Certain vehicles are on a list of eligible vehicles that can be imported on a Show or Display exemption due to "historical or technological significance" and can be driven 2500 miles a year. I'm not sure how the Audi is here, but the Subaru is on the official list.

It’s not Federalized, therefore it’s not here legally. It is here on an exemption and can be told “not any more” at any time. Is that likely? Probably not. Edit: Unless something has changed, it’s also not on the exemption list. For some ****ed up reason, the only forbidden Subaru fruit on that list is a 2006 Forester. |

Do you have a personal import scheme? That's a loophole some people use here to bring in cars that otherwise cannot be registered. If you live overseas and own a vehicle there for more than 12 months it can be brought back here and registered. It's mostly cost prohibitive as there is a load of work to have the vehicle modified to comply but it happens.

Some sort of forward control cab would have made a lot more sense.
