    One thread I found on the Garage Journal said they are branded as Maha in the US.
    MAHA USA M-FHB-6500 Mobile Two Post Lift (asedeals.com)

    Not cheap.

    I just called them.
    They have no importer in US / Canada. However you can order directly at them and they'll export - they'll make you an offer if you inquire - they are pretty pricey new and therefore sought after in used condition.
    The only model they'll export is the FHB3500-DC01 with the batteries and it only has the european certifications so no "ALI" ou "UL" certification (don't know what these are)
    They didn't mention the maha labeled - so I'd try to go that route.

    And be aware for a 911 you'll have to use some aides (wood) to have the car high enough to get to the jacking spots - and I know a lot of people that fell over the beams on the floor.
    If you do not need it to be mobile I'd use a two stamp lift that buried is in the floor.
