My thought is no unless it had options that were not available in the US.
I believe that is what makes it grey market.

So, I spotted this today:
At first I thought that I had Challenge #1770 "Gray Market Vehicle" solved, but the more I look at the picture the more I think that someone tarted up a Nissan Titan. A close look at the "M600" emblem shows the last 0 to be a bit lower than the rest. Also, when I got around the truck, there was a "V12 TURBO DIESEL" emblem on the door and when we got home I googled Mercedes V12 Diesel and all I got were marine engines. Had to share anyway.
To market, to market…

Interesting. Can't say I've seen this before. Hard to find I'm guessing, let the hunt begin!

I am pretty sure the fire trucks at the local airport here are fluorescent green...

Has anyone heard from New Lyme? I tried calling him, left him a voicemail. I'm getting a bit worried about him.

Hello Shrifty!
This is Mrs. NewLyme
He certainly misses joining in the challenges. Life is just a little crazy right now and it is hard to keep up with everything on the farm while working full-time while I finish up school. He tries to keep up but he is not quite as fast as he once was It is nice to see new members. He hoped to win the lottery but we didn't have all of our numbers in the same row
Thank you for checking on him!

I live 10 minutes from Valley Forge National Historic Park and I work until 10pm tonight. Maybe I'll stop by tomorrow for a shot. This is at the park, but not in front of the memorial/monument:

The park is a monument in and of itself. I call this a win. Next?

Nice! I'll accept that as fact. Next challenge. Also, going with the "year" theme, as we declared our independence from Britain on July 4th, 1776, let's see your TDI in front of an American flag.

I found a 48 star flag in my attic. Would that be partial bonus?
