I've always wondered what it was like driving one of those things. They're so....different. I can't tell if its cool or wacky. Anyone driven one?

If I'm not mistaken there are 3 in North America but getting them to pass inspection is more than a chore.
All of its 64 horses could be worth it though!!

The problem is getting it legal in the States. IIRC, for it to be allowed US roads, there has to be a record of a crash test on the chassis.

Yeah I was reading about some of that earlier on the Suzuki forums
Apparently its somehow easier to register in Cali which is surprising.

The easiest way for that is to wait til it's 25 years or older... then it's exempt from all the tests for DOT emissions ect. only downfall is most of the random cars that look awesome.... at 25 years old.... parts would be a PITA.

You can import a car for "Track use only" and just wait til the 25 year mark hahaha then register it and drive it. Importing laws in the states are really extreme. It wouldnt be as bad if it was the 15 year mark like Canada...bleh.
