Man,

LHD to RHD conversion will cost you an easy 20 grand.

It's a pain in the ass ... Firewall has to be moved and basically everything you see has to be all custom made and shit.

Plus the labour will cost you heaps as well.

It's not worth it man!

For 20 grand you could make ur accord coupe

Hahaha

Well since there is a sedan, and the parts already exist in the sedan RHD, it might not quite cost 20k like it usually would for a US only car...however you'd need to basically rip apart half a sedan to do it :)

I also say not worth it, after importing one (if you can import one!) and paying to have it converted you may as well remodel a sedan. Would be easier

So there was at least a 6th gen Coupe :D

I'm itching to find out if the Type-R can be brought in under SEVS...

Under the old rules, only way to have got one in was to live in the UK and then move back here, bringing it in as a personal import

there is a 5th gen coupe in Europe.
i stumbled across some euro forums awhile ago, and i believe it was badged as an accord euro. its basically just a 5th gen (the 96 model with big rear lights) with only 2 doors.

if u wanna make one in aus, just weld the rear doors onto the car and u got a 2 door :D:D:D

can we import cars from NZ? coz i kno in NZ they have this one sic accord coupe pimped out :P
