No, I was talking about it being Gray market because it is Canadian.  The
report by Bob that a car can be registered as if it were from another US
state is a surprise to me.  I had thought I remembered horror stories of
people needing to upgrade speedometers at a minimum, and possibly other
safety items on cars brought in from Canada.
