Post subject: exporting car to America
I want to buy a local china car and export it back to the United States when my expat assignment is over. Does anyone have any experience with this? Is is possible to send it back in pieces to get around any emissions or safety requirements?

As far as I know that cannot be done at least legally. I believe all states require an emission test regardless of where and how you get your car. The exception might be on antique cars.
The safety issues also depend on your state.
The best thing is to check with your state DMV.
