Has anyone ever seen a Lada in the USA?

Went to buy a compressor off Kijiji (Canadian Craigslist) a couple of years ago and the guy had this Lada that was in awesome condition.

He was blown away that I knew what it was. I told him I hadn’t seen one in close to 30 years!

He said he bought it from the Toronto Classic Car Auction.
