Do you really think they would be able to get them to pass emissions? Hell no. What about hp restrictions in some states? Nope. Some states, like MN, have a 500hp street car maximum buried in the books somewhere. Which is why the Diablo is illegal here. Is that messed up or what? Anyway, if they were imported here, we'd get a tuned down version of the car that the rest of the world gets because of all of our restictions.
I'm sure it would still be fast, but after all the crash testing, EPA approval, and modifications our DOT would require, they'd be a limited production model like the Viper because it would be too expensive for the mainstream public. Sad but true, that's why we always get screwed when it comes to the real exotic versions of cars the rest of the world enjoys.
