I bought 2 cars from Canada before and no issues just hire a broker to handle the paperwork and transport. This one should have no problem since its a numbered car and some of them were sent to the US. The only potential issue is if the speedometer is in kilometers instead of miles but could get away of conversion if it has a small digital speedo thats interchangeable from kph to mph.
The ultimate water-cooled 911, wouldn't you agree?
@Craignyc companies like Autocross Vehicle Advisors Ltd. can help with logistics and paper work in importing Canadian cars into USA. http://autocrossva.ca/
Bid in the amount of $100,000
@Craignyc In general a foreign made car that was never imported to US (like this car which was delivered new in Canada) will be subject to standard import duties of 2.5% of the purchase price. The applicable price here would be the sale price of the car today, not the original MSRP. Modern cars may also be subject to gas-guzzler tax.
I’ve never imported a Canadian car before, are there any additional taxes or fees?
@radonculous car is all stock except the RSS roll bar installed.
@radonculous date of DME scab done when fresh service done 3 weeks ago.
@radonculous Thanks for your questions. DME readings and CarFax in the picture gallery. Car has no accidents and no paint work. PPF covered full front, side mirrors, rear quarter, rear bumper and rear wing. Paint reading pictures submitted and will be uploaded soon by pmarket.
Also date of DME--I didn't find it. Thanks.
Any recent carfax? Any paint work or modifications?
