Had it been some unusual sporty version, such as the Suzuki Swift GTI, maybe it would be more appealing in a country like mine, but I don't really say it's so pointless for someone really willing to get one of those versions more oriented toward penny-pinchers. Sure it won't make sense from a strictly economical standpoint, but as a hobby it may be comparable to someone who imports a Citroën 2CV from Argentina instead of buying a VW Beetle here.
