EU F87 to US
Hi all,
I'm about to move to Texas from NL and have the opportunity to bring my 2018 F87 M2C along. Does anyone have a list of what needs to happen to meet the US EPA / DOT / local regulations? I'd expect something along the lines of speedometer, bumpers (to get a silly reflector) and in the days of old head and taillights but can't quite find a list for this car specifically. Thanks! |

Well you'll definitely need front sidemarkers (new headlights with orange light and new bumper with orange reflector). I have no clue about the rest lol

It will be incredibly difficult and costly to permanently import it without using the show and display provision. I believe you can temporarily import for up to a year, however. Honestly, if your move is to be permanent, I would sell the M2 and buy another one when you get to the states. Although it may be valuable to you, it's not an unbelievably rare car that you can't easily replicate in the states. It's actually easier (relatively) to import a US spec car into Europe than it is the other way around.
If you are going to the US as a foreign govt. or military entity, than you have a lot more leeway. |

If you're really set on bringing your M2 here contact https://jktechnologies.net. That's the conversion company I used. But it really would be easier and cheaper to buy a lightly used M2 here. BTW, I'm getting ready to do the opposite of what you're doing; importing my M2 to Germany. And from what I've found in my research, it actually is a bit easier to import a US spec car (especially a German made car) to the EU than the other way around. |

Do yourself a favor. Sell it in NL and buy one here for a fraction of the price. Ik ben ook Nederlands.
