Consider it flattering.
Like they're trying to get a little of our 'florida' and 'california'

just like we do with an American  car model name like Riviera.

Lots of non-conforming vehicles get into the US somehow, and get titled
and registered.
Either hoops to jump through, or hoops to sneak around.
