I was under the impression that the odd one had made its way over to America. Could be wrong though. Im sure Ive seen a number of web pages that made mention of the FTO from or the US.

Anyone want to correct me????

Iâ€™ve seen a FTO with left hand side steering, but it was a conversion & not factory, all the FTO from factory are right hand drive.

And as for importing one into your country, you really have to speak to the correct authorities at your side, as I assume you guys would have your own rules & regulations with importing cars.

I am aware of 3 in the US, I read somewhere on the UK FTO Owner's club site: http://www.ftooc.org

Unfotrunately it is down at the moment.

If you could get in touch with one of the owners there they may be able to help you... if I remember correctly it varies from US state to state on how dificult it is to get an FTO into US... might be easier to import it into one of those states and then from there into Canada.

Just throwing some ideas at you, don't know if any will help

$135000 Canadian dollars??? Thats $151,000 AUS. That makes me feel better knowing we didn't get rip as much as Canadian. EVO 5 are like around $20,000 aus in Jap at the moment, & thats $17,700 in Canadian dollars.

Well i know Euro cars are dam cheap in Canada though

i feel your pain el_warde.....been trying to bring my fto back to indonesia but indonesia doesn't allow used car import and of course u can do the dodgy stuff in indonesia but that cost like A$40000 for the FTO

and u still have the risk of the car not getting to your hand at all
