I have personally imported a LHD Mustang and a Challenger will be next and I wont be converting that either.
Yep I could have bought a Tickford Mustang but I saved my pennies until I could afford to buy a proper one and thats not intended to offend anyone that did, it is just my view.
I could buy a LHD 2019 2SS tomorrow for about 50% less than a RHD version.
F series, RAM and Silverado/Sierra keep a lot of value as here you can't drive something LHD until it's 30 years old.

You don't have a choice unless you want to hold onto it for 30 years before you can register it as LHD.

1990s Silverado fetch $25K-$30K with a few hundred thousand kilometres on the clock.
