I'm not sure why someone would do this..but..you are not an importer, which is required for any vehicle that is 25 years old or newer since it has to be proven to meet U.S DOT, NHTSA and EPA regulations. Also, it is U.S. VIN'd? If not, you cannot register it. Also, there may be no implied warranty.
