***Successfully imported a F20/F21 from Mexico***

Does anyone in here know of anyone in the US who as successfully imported one of these sweet machines into the US? Specifically a 2017+ M140i?

If you know them please tag them here or PM me.

Thanks

No, I live in the US and I'm wanting to buy it in Mexico and import it into the US. I'm trying to find anyone who has successfully done this. It doesn't necessarily need to be this platform because the process would be the same for any newer BMW I would assume.

As it has been mentioned many times on this site , importing F20/F21 into the US is eliminated by the fact it's not road legal there. This car is hardly of any value as a track only or collectible. According to Doug DeMuro you should just wait about 23(?) years (having bought the car in Mexico now and stored it safely there, I'd suggest). But the forthcoming extinction of internal combustion engines eliminates that option just as well. "Any newer BMW" is not necessarily the case but you would definitely find no benefit in importing it instead of buying locally.
