Cars are NOT relatively cheap in HK, if anything, they are about 100% to 250% more than what you can get in the US.
All new cars are subject to 110% tax so just add that to the suggested retail price.
Used 964 are in the 50k USD range.
anyway, thanks again. I will give this conversion a very careful thought before proceeding.
Cheers and happy new year to you all!


Cars in HK ARE relatively cheap. Relative to Australia, that is.

I find it no problem at all........ however....... a LHD in the UK would be a royal PITA because of the smaller twisty roads.

Actually, I've been driving my US car virtually daily in the UK for the last 16 months, and it's not been a problem at all - in 18,000 miles. I had expected there to be more issues. I had thought it would feel more out of place than it did. Very pleasantly surprised.

Card readers at corporate car parks were a PITA sometimes - especially if holding onto the strap and throwing the card against it resulted in too short a duration for it to read it :) A short stick worked better...

Otherwise, no worries at all with a modicum of common sense.

Not that this helps the OP, but just in case someone else is considering it...

Jig Shmig
 
I was just searching for something else and came across this post again.

I have been driving my (shock horror) jig less project car for 18 months now without a bother and today the car was taken for a drive by a renound road, race and rally car preparation panelguy and he raved about how tight the car is and how it drives like a new one.
