Wait what? I bought (and currently imported) a S15 and I couldn't bring it into the country till the official build month (January, 1999), thus next month. It's listed on the release papers (Export Certificate, Translation, Bill of Lading and Bill of Sale) from the importers.

From what I understand, the seller didn't have the original paper work?

Either way, I'm glad he got it in without a hitch, but I hope more people don't get the idea that it's okay to bend the rules. That will ruin it for a lot of people...
