Dont forget that the Aussie import laws apply to cars coming from all over the world and not just Japan. Its just that for a long long time Japan was the most convenient place to ship from and enjoyed a decent exchange rate.

What cars are avaibale in NZ? I know there are barely any import laws there so the place has been flooded with cars meaning they are dirt cheap.

On a side note, I REALLY want the seats from an S204. Considering the market Impreza's are aimed at I always thought they seating arangment for the front row was somewhat strange.
