Aren't E30 M3s only come in LHD? Or do some actually convert them to RHD?
Joseph,
I'm afraid you have to wait for at least couple of years before u can bring in your car as your car is more than 5 years old & less than 25 years old.
For car age of less than 5, u can use personal AP to bring in. So forget about personal AP.
For Antique car AP, car got to be 25 years of age at least, so it depend ur car age but I know at least u need to wait for at least couple of years before u can bring it in.
You can't apply Antique AP, so need to get it from trader.

BTW, E30 M3 only have LHD production, even for UK market. Subsequent M3 models only have RHD.
I wonder who would spend money to convert E30 M3 into RHD, i would think is stupid to convert it to RHD, cause M3 enthusiast wouldn't want to spend money for non original E30 M3.
Even myself in RHD country wouldn't want to buy RHD E30 M3.

U must have get me wrong. I neither directly nor indirectly and intentionally nor unintentionally label any particular person(s) stupid. Is just an expression saying that is stupid to do something and I don't think that's anything wrong with my wording. It's the same meaning with "not wise", but I had use "stupid" for convenience sake but wihout the intention to target or label anyone. I believe u might be too sensitive. Anyway, if anyone here had convert E30 M3 from LHD to RHD and my wording had made him / her uneasy, I sincerely apologies to him / her as I am here to made friend not enemy.
I didn't know that I need to introduce myself in Newbie section before I can continue posting, I come across this post from alert that I set in Google & have no idea that I need to introduce myself. Anyway my name is Thomas KB Wong and as mentioned in my earlier post that I am from Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur.
The reason I said E30 M3 have to be in ori LHD because E30 M3 LHD have the best configurations and conversion to RHD would deplete the best performance and value of the vehicle.

I know there is a company have antique / classic car AP but I can't remember the company name, his last known showroom is near the bridge at Kampung Kayu Ara but I doubt they still there.
U can check with MITI who can bring in classic cars. Anyway, your car still less than 25 years old, so u need to wait for 2 years at least.

Yes, Mizhan u r right, is Rainbird. Joseph can call them for more info.
Maybe Joseph can also try the MM2H program if u r not a Malaysian but I am not sure they allow to bring in vehicles more than 5 years old.
Good luck

Importing A Vehicle To Malaysia
Unfortunately this is going to be a hassle. It is perhaps the best idea to just put your car into storage or in the care of a friend while you are in Malaysia. However if you really have to bring your car the following will be helpful.
The imposition of very high import duties make owning a non Malaysian made car somewhat expensive. Import duties run to as high as 300%. Consequently the vast majority of cars in Malaysia are locally produced ones. Cost of maintenance and parts for foreign cars are also factors to be considered. Needless to say if your car is rare or indeed not available in Malaysia these factors become paramount.
Shipping charges, documentation and bureaucracy may also cause you problems, although hiring a shipping agent will alleviate most of the stress involved, charges will of course be imposed.
To import your car, you must apply for an Approval Permit (AP) from the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI).
In order to apply for this permit your car must be registered under your name for at least 3 years. The following documentation must then be presented and processed:
1. A letter of application addressed to the Ministry Of International Trade and Industry (MITI) for the importing of a car from your home country to Malaysia for personal use.
2. A JK69 form must be purchased MITI and duly completed.
3. Documentation indicating proof of ownership. Typically this will be a purchase receipt or transfer of ownership/letter from the previous owner if the car was purchased second-hand.
4. The original and photocopied registration.
5. The cars original insurance documents and/or a letter from the insurance company.
6. Your work permit and letter of contract from your employer in Malaysia.
7. A photocopy of your passport.
All these documents must be presented to the officer in charge at the MITI offices, who will also conduct a short interview. Processing of your application typically takes seven working days, if all goes well you will be issued an Approval Permit allowing you to import your car. The permit is valid for only 3 months, if you do not import your car by then, you will have to go through the entire process all over again.
Upon the arrival of your car, you are required to collect it yourself from the port and then you will need to apply for a permit from the Malaysian Road Transport Department or "Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan", this entails more registration paperwork which of course will include your proof of ownership and registration documents, a car inspection and the payment of the import duties.
