Yeah, sorry guys but I have no translation for you. I suppose military import would be the way to go, although you would still need to get it federalized (not sure if that would be a problem or not)

it seems like a 99 with 66k kilometers about 41k miles.
i didnt see anything different than the regular US options on the pics. ( no parktronic, no folding mirrors, no power shade for rear window)

sorry cant figure the rest out.

If you look closely, it does in fact have power folding mirrors. If you look even closer there seems to be a special plaque on the ashtray cover.
