I'm curious about why it made economic sense to bring cars such as the Colt to Poland from the US? Or did it not make sense economically, but you just wanted one and couldn't get a LHD version from anywhere closer? I had assumed all this time that all Mitsubishis except the Eclipse were sold directly into Europe from Japan? |

not all, for example carisma is only for europe made in holand
here you can see my cars,
and importing cars from US is economic because even with all taxes etc. used cars are cheaper, better extra outfit ... |

Nice. Those wheels look good on that htb i(?). It's also interesting how the two shades of red look the same to me when the cars are far apart but you can see that they are different.
So if a person buys a 5k usd used car from the US, what is the final cost by the time it is legal to drive on Polish roads? |

So if I'm understanding correctly, a 5k usd car (1991/1992) would cost 5k * 1,65 * 1,22 = ~10k usd + ~1k usd transport. You can't get equivalent cars locally for a better price than that? |

not in this condition, and not every model was offered in poland/europe, so its easier to buy in US, you can find in poland VR4 or dynamic 4 even gti for 1500$ but it will be a piece of sh**
how much you have to pay for new EVO IX in US?
and it will be question which kill somebody from the forum, how long you have to work to earn money for EVO
in poland cheapest evo IX 280PS costs about 56700$
EVOLUTION IX GT340 is the most expensive for about 70000$
average polish worker have to work for it all his life, and more |

shippment car so old like example is unprofitable because in UE you should buy for few Euro.
In Poland excise and duty rise with age and its based on invoice so "we" buy quite new, cheap car from auction - not everybody but most.

you must only change back red ligts (direction) on orange and remodel front ligt (if necessary) or give some money in pocket on first technical inspection |

Ouch, usd? I can buy a new IX RS for about 28k usd, GSR = 32k, MR = 34k. This is about 1/2 year salary for the average American, about 1 year salary for most rural or non-college-educated Americans. Of course there are plenty of richer people in many places for whom this is lunch money. Unfortunately I don't fall into the last category or I would have one. We have many young people in our club who don't have much money yet, so they buy worn out FWD cars, but most will eventually be able to afford something like an EVO if that is a high priority for them. For most Americans, once they marry and have children they no longer care about fast cars, though. I'm one of the odd few who's never grown up .
I understand the economic effects of the world economy on salary, sometimes those factors work against me and help raise wages in India instead. I didn't realize that the vehicles would cost so much in Poland, though. |

The only problem is that I don’t want to live in US
We have to pay for World Wars, mistakes and especially communism!
But we won't give up! (fixed)
About children: I think it is the same in Poland. But there are always exceptions |

Compared to the rest of the EU the cars in Poland are generally not so expensive. I you really want to see how expensive they can be look up prices in Denmark. |
