Default VW Crossfox

I do not believe the VW Crossfox is available in the US.

In the last week or so I saw one of these parked on my street in Chicago.

Are they being brought here by VW or was this someone from Brazil being unique?

It was a cool little suv. Hard for me to day that as I generally hate any suv.

Thanks LexMex

I believe the car had a US plate.

I remember that bringing canadian cars that have us model equivalents into the us is doable, just change the speedo.

I can't remember the question coming up for bringing in cars from Mexico.

It's quite hard to import from Mexico to U.S. and it got harder to import from U.S. to Mexico, now they only allow (for some odd reason) only 1998 model vehicles to be nationalized here, http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23437698/=

I don't ever remember VW bringing it to either Canada or the U.S., though I don't rule it out being a manufacturer's car for testing. The price here is a bit under $15K USD.

Not the greatest little vehicles in the world, I have driven one, but they do stick out down here.
