Default Shipping and Handling

So, I'm browsing around the net the other night and I come across this website from Japan. And what does this website have...??? RX-7s/SUPRAS/SKYLINES etc etc etc all for sale at a measly $4500-$5000.

I tried to figure out how to get a vehicle from there to here in the US but to no avail. I've spoken to a representative and I'm told that the specs do not meet US requirements therefore they're not able to ship to the US. So this strikes my curiousity...how in the hell am i seeing Skylines here in the US, then?? Anybody know the process of how these people get these cars here???

you can import them but they either have to be brought up to US standards for saftey or I think there is a way to import them as a parts vehicle... updating them to US specs is where it can get spendy, all new glass and safety components...
