NHTSA Clears Path for Importation of Nonconforming Mercedes-Benz Models

Summary

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has announced that certain 1993 Mercedes-Benz 500SL and 1994-1995 SL500 passenger cars are eligible for importation into the US due to their substantial similarity to vehicles originally certified for US sale and their ability to be modified to meet safety standards.
