Whats a grey import?
Generally, it’s an item imported through a grey area in a country’s import laws. In Australia, as far as it applies to motor vehicles, grey imports are used vehicles bought (usually wholesale) in another country (almost exclusively Japan), then imported in limited numbers and complianced by the importer to be eligible for Australian registration. Unlike official imports, those imported with the approval and involvement of the manufacturer, grey imports receive no official support through the manufacturer’s dealer network.
