Love your Porsche! Maybe someday, many years down the road, for me...
In the meantime I love my 98 BMW M Roadster - at least during the summer
No pics. It's black. Use your imagination / google.


I can handle some of the ricers for you and then we can have a cigar.

Im with you. My '05 M3 hasn't been driven in some time but were restoring back to original in preparation to ship it to Thailand.

Have you shipped cars there before? Is it already owned by a Thai as personal property in USA. I have done car exports to Switzerland a few times, so just curious. How is the homologation process go in Thailand? I thought they were RHD?

Nope, I have never shipped a vehicle to Thailand before. Being that my wife is a Thai citizen I dont think it makes a difference on that import duty & taxation. I hear its high if the vehicle is under 10 years old. But, alas like many things, my wife tells me it largely depends on "who" you know. She has some connections there that I dont question. Like how in the hell she got her replacement birth certificate 3 days after she made the request (That includes transit time).

I know many who imported fancy cars to Indonesia as college students. They'd buy the car as soon as they get here and bring it back with them as personal property on their move back. Usually new Mercedes.

I hope it works out well for you. I know taxes in that region can be 100%, but it sounds like your wife knows the right people. Would love to hear how it all plays out.
