Yes, If you want to import a car into the USA that is less than 25 years old you need to provide proof that the vehicle meets US regulations. That will either come from the manufacturer (Who has zero incentive to spend money to provide you with documentation to import a grey market car) or from a independent 3rd party that will certify compliance. Yes, that costs money.

It is entirely possible to do - if you are willing to follow the process.
