And the $ and paperwork to get it certified so that you could put plates on it would have run easily high enough to negate the cost differential. Plus you would have had to fit all the US emissions controls and replace the bumpers to US spec units, change the marker lights etc.

The most likely case is that the OPs contacts are as mistaken as the guy who claimed he once had one of the prototype V6 924s back in the 1970's...
