I think holden thought it was a good idea to send some of our cars over there because they seen how much interest in imports are here...LOL. I highly doubt they are gonna sell like hot cakes and japan is gonna limit imports like aus did because no one brought aussie cars :angry2:

You fail on so many levels.

The Japanese seem to love things that are big, loud and rwd, especially if they're different and we know they're fond of a skid. They buy bulk Yank musclecars and big engine Euro stuff. Hardly a surprise someone saw a market niche for the SS/Maloo utes.

Australia never closed any imports down because "nobody brought Aussie cars*". 15+ was shut because wanker importers were using it to bring in dime-a-dozen shitboxes, trucks, tractors, forklifts and other rubbish which was never part of it, being a scheme designed for enthusiasts, not to bring in cheap 4x4s, buses and Hiaces on the sly.
SEVS was part of a greater overhaul of the system to weed out the dodgy and plain unsafe shitboxes arriving, not to mention a number of other issues like emissions and such which a flood of dirty early 90's snotters would bring.

Next thing you'll tell us they made V8 supercars to ban GT-Rs....

Get your hand off it and post when you have a FUCKING CLUE.
