You won't be able to drive them on the road unless the DoT has done safety testing on that specific model of car. You can own one, you're just not going to be able to put plates on it or get it insured.

You can drive it across the border if it has Mexican plates though.

I've seen models of cars not sold in the US far from the border with Mexican plates.

They probably might but people drive their cars with Mexican plates into the US all the time.
