Is the term import still a relevant vehicle category? The proliferation of the front wheel drive four cylinder vehicle has largely pulled the sheet out from under "import" vehicles today, but we like to remember a time when the term import was likened to exotic semi-reasonably priced cars. Cars like the RX7, the 3 series, the 240Z, and Porsches alike. Lightweight, efficient, and always a hoot to drive, classic import cars are appreciating quickly and it should come as no surprise. If you're like us and have a soft spot for overseas sedans and coupes, you might fancy this selection of our favorite imports from the 2017 SEMA Show.
