He's exporting pre-owned S2000's into Taiwan. They bring big bucks. I sold a new 2009 GPW CR to a Taiwanese importer. Paid nearly sticker new, but he already had it sold to someone for almost $60K USD after customs fees and duties. It seemed ridiculous at first but you can't get CR or anything close to it outside the US.

If it's pre-owned I think they get a customs duty break so it's not as bad.

A gray market S2000 is probably cheaper than the S2000's in their own country (if there is any)

interesting info, so is Taiwan Right hand drive or left hand drive cars?

 

I think, quick calculations seems Australia and Taiwan generally similar priced for an S2000 at least based upon MY06, probably Taiwan bit more expensive.

 

left-hand drive
