State department hand wringing that China is going to use the US trade agreements as they were designed is 
I fully expect them to redo these with "except china" clauses.

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
Probably not, no, I think you could just drive it across the border, if it's only one. The Chinese cars aren't illegal here they are just subject to a 100% tariff. I'm talking out of my ass though so take it for what it's worth
Edit: I forgot about the safety standards. Wouldn't want anyone getting hurt. Better stick to the cybertruck for now
yeah. From what I know about japanese imports even if you can get them to the US you can't register them if that model of car was never sold here (and maybe even if it was, idr), since technically it never passed various US safety tests that are mandatory. There have been lots of exotic cars crushed for trying. If it's older than 25 years though you get an exemption from the safety standards.
But those Chinese EVs are sold here, hence the tariff being in place, right?
The tariff is in place to prevent Chinese EVs from setting up shop in the first place. Taxed at 100%, no one will buy so why bother selling here?
