thought you can't really get Mercs and BMWs to Canada due to you HAVE to let the dealership to do things that will cost a lot?

dunno. when i was looking for an e46 m3 back when the dollar was really strong, it was like 70% of those advertised locally were from the US.

say what?


best bang for your cock?


china my friend

modded evo or viper/vette

get a viper.

ill be your best friend.

But a viper will make your G35 sound quiet.

Yep, I didn't notice this now but there are lots of imported GTR R35's from the US. lol

Can't you import almost any vehicle from the US to Canada? used... don't think so if they're new.

know some guy who wanted to buy an Audi A5 or Aston Martin down in Seattle, new... and they couldn't be brought up.

Yes you can import the cars if they are new.

You can not import brand new Honda's into canada, unless the car is registered in the US for a certain period of time(2 months I think). The salesman at Bellevue Honda told me Honda Canada was losing too much money because people were buying them in the states. Not sure about other brands.

i thought honda was notorious for not issuing the paperwork required to show that all recalls have been done? without it it cannot cross the border?

you don't even need a recall letter for Hondas, RIV can just look it up online themselves

There is a distinction:

A US "official" dealer is not allowed by US Corporate headquarters to sell a new car to a Canadian.

US Gov / Cdn Gov honestly don't care as long as you pay the taxes.

Nearly all of it is car manufacturers trying to protect their Canadian franchise owners.

last time I checked, new evox gsr's or below in the states are still around 30k

OK, i guess you can't import Hondas. Any other brands you cannot import?

You can import Hondas, you just can't buy them new from Honda dealers as a Canadian.

You want a new Honda from US? Get your relatives in the US to buy you one, then transfer it to your name.

sorry I am new to this topic , what are the procedures for importing cars from the states ?

inspections ? tax ? transport fees ? etc ?

random question: is it worth it to bring up a bike, ie: r6, gsxr etc. ? anyone have any experience or know anything about bringing up bikes frome the states?

Looking at the sticky at the top of the Vancouver Import Chat Forum will tell you.

Here's the link if you can't see it.

Also, dont' forget about warranty if you're buying something new (or relatively new). Some manufacturers won't honour a US warranty in Canada.
