Government regulations, the US is very strict on it meeting certain standards. So buying X car and bringing it here will get it taken away (look at the R33/34 stories).
Also, that GT500 SS is not sold by Ford or Shelby in Japan and probably even brought in under the radar.

good, dont feel so bad about it now. regulations of what? emissions? crash test ratings? the same car with more HP isnt going to change the crash test of the car. emissions can be fixed in 15 minutes. and ive heard there are random things like.... plexiglass rear windshields and such on japanese cars to reduce weight. well yet again, something most would be willing to change to meet these invisible unjustified regulations. sounds like it involves MONEY along the line somewhere to me.
