There’s more than just the Skyline R34 when it comes to recently legal import gems. As of now, cars produced from the beginning of 2000 are becoming legal for import into the United States, month by month. The 25-year import rule includes the month the vehicle was built, so with each month a great number additional of vehicles can be imported.

Lightning strikes are some of the most awesome demonstrations of power on Earth. We’ve all seen trees, mountains, and skyscrapers struck. But if a car is struck by lightning, then what happens?
