USDM Tesla in Vilnius, Lithuania

The Belarusian number plate indicating electric car caught my eye before I realised the indicator was red, not amber. I thought neither Belarusian cars nor cars not modified for Europeans standards were allowed in the EU (Lithuania).

USDM Ford Mustang in Volgograd, Russia

It's a pretty rare Mustang nowadays, because for the most part people started buying 6th generation Mustangs only in the middle of 2010. And the fifth generation has always been a kind of "unicorn".

Ukraine (🇺🇦 - Nationwide Prefix) - Liverpool, UK.

Spotted whilst riding near the Albert Dock, I've never seen the nationwide identifier before so it was interesting to come across.

USDM Fiat 500e in Łódź, Poland.

Kinda strange situation - most of 500s you can spot in Poland are produced in Poland for European Market and every 500e is imported from USA and produced in Mexico.

UK-Spec Riley Elf MK 3, seen in Luxembourg-City, Luxembourg. Experts will have to correct me but I believe these were U.K.-only productions? (for the Americans, Lux drives on the right).

Foreign-spec Lincoln Town Car in Hyōgo, Japan

The non-export-spec taillights and the resulting blinker setup are definitely... ちょっと。

Smart Forfour from Mexico in Irvine, California. Photos by car.spotting.oc from Instagram.

This car was never sold in the US and Canada. The Fortwo was the only Smart model that was sold in US and Canada during the brand’s time in these countries. Mexico was the only North American country that got the Forfour.

Smart no longer sell cars in the US and Canada. They also no longer sell cars in Mexico as well.
