I have been lurking around on toymods for quite a while now. Since I have a toyota related question to ask so I thought there'd be no better place to ask than here.
So anyway, last night around 6pm, I was driving towards the city (I'm in Sydney btw). I noticed a white SW20 MR2 on Eddy Ave and didn't think much about it until my friend noticed it was a left hand drive car. So when we were waiting to turn right onto George St, I noticed the back of the car had a 'turbo' badge on the right hand corner. I also noticed it had NSW style license plates on, or at least I think it is because I only noticed it was black letters on white back with with registration Axx-nnQ (x are letters and n are numbers). But I'm not too sure because didn't see the NSW bit that should be vertical, on the left of the plate. I think it was bent so that the plate could fit onto the bumper area where the plate should go. The car also didn't have a left hand drive sticker on the back.
Has anyone noticed this MR2 going around? I'm curious because I was under the impression that late model left hand drive cars couldn't be registered in NSW. I wanted to ask the driver how he registered the car when I was next to him in traffic but he didn't seem too approchable
So whats the story? It's a temporary import or what? Tell me your theories.
