I doubt shipping is insanely expensive given the right carrier. I see right-hand drive Japanese cars and those little cabover trucks with short, shallow beds semi-regularly. Considering that some of them end up in this region, most people in the rest of the country should be able to import large items without putting a huge dent in their wallets.
