Just Imported the Unicorn 1991 Subaru Alcyone L with 4WS into the USA

Well talk about a comeback. I haven't been on here in almost 15 years. I ended up coming across this car, which was gonna cut up and put into a container for an importer and I couldn't let it happen. Car has 29k miles (47k kilos) .l I purchased it almost a year ago and have been going through hell to get it in here since last November since I wanted to do it under the 25 year rule.
I must say the car is flawless. no leaks,no rust and no issues. feels like a new car. amazing for it being 25 years old. Paint is a little sketchy since its original paint, but nothing a respray wont take care of.

I hope you guys enjoy the pics. she will be up for sale once I get her painted, install new tires and brakes and change out the fluids.

Question Re: Just Imported the Unicorn 1991 Subaru Alcyone L with 4WS into the USA

I've always wondered why vehicles destined to be sold in a specific geographical market, such as Japan, nonetheless label everything in English; i.e. TEMP, AUTO, etc., AND why is ALCYONE written in Engrish?
