I'm pretty sure it was sold here in the US. Here's a link with a little more info. It has the steering wheel on the left hand side, so I'm goin with a yes on this one.

Yeah the RX-3 was sold there, quite rare by now. Very hard to find one in good shape. Probably still easier than up here in Canada though.
