Where do you live?
Don't know about the USA but in Canada it is possible to import a vehicle that is too new for import, 15 years in Canada, if you prove and provide information of a destroyed VIN. Parts only, some import house in Japan exist only for parts importing. Shipping was a bit more, but not much for a rolling chassis. On my auction access bought a 2015 Toyota GRJ76 that was a write off in Japan, roll over but with the box removed it was a rolling, driving chassis. Funny enough bed removal in Japan and flat deck tow to Vancouver Island both cost $600 cdn, which I thought is reasonable. Friend had extra paper work, but it was auto parts, not a vehicle, so duty and import fees were less.
