All, Thanks for the warm welcome, I'll post some pictures as a separate individual reply in the post.
Nice one, that's dedication! Enjoy it, got friends in Toronto, will tell them to look out for it in the spring, can't imagine there are any more over there?!..
I expect this may be the only one here as the 15 year window is just coming into view for these cars. Thanks for choosing the term "dedicated".... "determined" or just plain "crazy" could also apply. I'm in mid-town Toronto and I buy cars to drive, not sit around, so they may see me about the city.
I guess a silver Speedster would stand out over there, but mandarin - you'll cause a few accidents!
I have some friends in London and am over most years, late June this year if you need any bits.
LOL, Yes the Orange is getting some notice and people seem to want to talk about the car. Thanks for the offer on bits, I may take you up on it as things are already starting to go... Between Germany and Canada I've put about 4200 KM on in the last month and just today had a leak pop up from the top of the rad hose vent screw, so I'll be sorting that before the safety this week. Looking at the (already very helpful) forums, it seems there is an o-ring in there? so I'll just swap that out. The car seems easy to work on and the engine parts should be readily available here and other bits seem simple enough to fabricate.
Awesome.
What made you go for the speedster?
I had the loan of a Speedster for a weekend when I was living in Switzerland in the early 2000's. It was a fun drive in the mountains, so the idea has been in the back of my head for a while. Also a few years ago I had a Cobalt SS TC as a mostly track car, it was fantastic on the track and I miss it. I figured the speedster could work as a fun road car and occasional track car while providing a bit of novelty in Canada. No point in taking the easy way and getting a Lotus, which are way too expensive here anyway.
EPIC
I wanted to know if you can bring in VX220s, mine is 15 this year 
Nice job, welcome to the forum, have fun and post pics!
In Canada you can bring in just about anything as long as its 15 years old. Some of the Provinces and insurance companies are more difficult if its a RHD car, but in Ontario and BC there are a fair number of Japanese RHD imports running around so those two are OK. If you are serious about importing your VX220, let me know and I can help you with the process.
