    Thumbs up

    Great pics! It's nice to see we have brothers/sisters all over the world.

    djkymar, not to be a smart ***** but the big meet we have in the U.S. is called Moab. Start making plans now. You will have a blast! It starts on the first Tuesday after Mother's Day.

    Peace.

    I wish we have something like Moab here, but no rocks and only mud On the next weekend we plan to have some fun in mud (2 VX, Opel Frontera and probably someone else).

    It will be very expensive to import VXs from now. Currently, tax fee is around $12000 if I'm not mistaken and next year it will raise even more (we have 7 year limit from manufacturing date as a border). From the other side, there is other way to bring a car with less custom fee, but usually it is used for JDM spec cars mostly - disassemble car in country of origin and import it as parts, then "swap" body, frame and engine (just assemble actually, but based on official documents it is a swap) for the wrecked/salvaged car.
    I think guys in Japan still have the lead I heard there was around 5500-6000 JDM VXs and taking into account their territory you can imagine how easy to make a huge meet
    Yeah, the Golden Ring cities are very unique! Though, in Rostov we was very disappointed - we did not meet any tourist. Such a beautiful place and no one make a money for the city infrastructure development...
