I have imported a US Z8 to Switzerland in 2014 and without any issues in in less than 2 weeks.I have also imported many European cars originally sold...

I can understand how an observer would see a Z8 as the modern interpretation of a Cobra.

So fun, you guys are making me miss mine!

You've got to start hopping in and out of the car like Damon did in the movie! The last yell I got was "nice Z8"!
