No my man. It goes by manufacturer. If a company produces more than 100 completely built(turn key) vehicles per year, then that vehicle must go through all the same shit to get cleared into the US as any other imported car.
The Ultima company gets around this by shipping their cars as kits. In this instance its without the drivetrain. Being that they roll out more than 100 cars a year they couldn't get any into the US unless they sent them requiring some assembly--FROM THE FACTORY.
i remember speed channel talking about registering 959's as kit cars. thier is a loop hole of somesort
