Default car (replacement) puchase info

At the risk of repeating myself, I am attempting to replace my totaled 05 roadster with less and less luck finding one! Only one of the ones I have found online are still available and they won't come off the posted price....okay I will stop whining now and get to the point. I am now considering, reluctantly, a different color (mine was Aero Blue) and see on a carfax report for two different ones no mention of them coming into customs. Weren't all of these cars made outside the US or am I wrong about that?

You all have so much more knowledge about these cars. I simple always wanted one, loved the look, feel and thrill of the drive and fell over one 7 months ago and bought it. Now I find the whole experience of car shopping for such a hard to find car is like a second job.

Thanks for the help in advance.

yes they were all made overseas, POI is Belgium, the shipping point. Look here in the Twin Cities of Minnesota. close enough to you and I know of at least 3 for sale, maybe the aero blue sister of mine is still there. it was only 13 s/n's off mine.

This was one of the biggest hold ups in bringing the crossfire to the US. There was some discussion of whether it was an import or domestic as nothing is built in the US but it is labeled as US. In the end it was labeled domestic, and did not have to go through customs as normal imports do. This is why there is no Importer of Record or Customs Inspection.


FYI.
