oga there is different between trying to import your car to US for personal Use and importing them to sell,provide me a link that says you can buy cars oversea and sell in US,do you think US is a junk country to sell used cars.
Your wrong you can import new or used cars for sale within the United states. Davidif is right a quick Googlesearch would have told you this.

Foreign-made vehicles imported into the U.S., whether new or used, either for personal use or for sale, are generally dutiable at the following rates:

You need to take reading lessons. You keep switching arguements because you refuse to cure your ignorance by reading. You can buy and sell used or foreign cars. All the cars in USA have to be registered in certain amount of days. Part of registration is getting us plate number and registration. Read links people are providing you.

Driver's Plates and Permits
Imported cars should bear the International Registration Marker. The International Driving Permit, issued in five languages, is a valuable asset. Consult an international automobile federation or your local automobile club about these documents.

U.S. residents importing a new or used car should consult the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) in their state of residence about temporary license plates and what documentation their DMV would require from CBP.

Nationals of Central and South American countries that have ratified the Inter-American Convention of 1943 may drive their cars in the U.S. for touring purposes for one year or for the period of the validity of the documents, whichever is shorter, without U.S. license plates or U.S. driver's permits, provided the car carries the International Registration Marker and registration card, and the driver has the International Driving Permit.

Motorists visiting the United States as tourists from countries that have ratified the Convention on International Road Traffic of 1949 may drive in the U.S. for one year with their own national license plates (registration tags) on their own national license plates (registration tags) on their cars and with their own personal drivers' licenses.

Motorists from Canada and Mexico are permitted to tour in the U.S. without U.S. license plates or U.S. driver's permits, under agreements between the United States and these countries.

Motorists from a country not a party to any of the above agreements must secure a driving permit in the U.S. after taking an examination.

Foreign nationals employed in the U.S. may use their foreign license tags from the port of entry to their destination in the U.S.

I see.u are ignorant and refuse to learn. If I import a car from Japan to UK for sale I have to register it to.a UK plate b4 I can display it for sale . However . However if I chose to use it myself I have certain. Months of grace
This is why people fly cars frm the UAE to the UK.
Now I can also.import a range rover sport from the EU to the US but I have to register it b4 I can sell it that's what they call a tittle.Every civilized country have used car market locally or imported . There is a thread on uses mini Cooper yoy can chk friend in california EgunMogaji he deals classic cars U will find him on the property section amd the Auto sections . He is into the restoration of the British brand in the US .
Used car market globally is bigger than new car market .yoy.can drive ship fly dismantle your car to get it into the US UK Canada Germany etc as far as it passes safety standards . So hence we say this FG has beans for brains and the people it affects are the hustlers in the SW borders but I guess they voted for this change as well as U.

There's no law here that says you have to register an import here before you sell it.

My friends and I have sold many U.K. imports with just the import paperwork.

Useless pquestion
Mindset like yours are the reason we are so backward in Nigeria see how embarassing you sound
For yoit own sanity the answer to your question is yes they do.Most Range Rovers are built in Britain and shipped to the USA and Canada . Same thing we import loads of cars from Japan to the UK cos they are RHD .

If that's what it takes to stimulate local production and if the corruption leak has been blocked then I'm actually on board with them.

Well it won't stimulate local production cos you are still allowed to import via the sea and airport . The issue of land borders I recon dwells on smugling and corruption
