Info regarding importing US car

hey guys,

i want to buy my spring toy early this year, got the cash ready and don't want to wait. but right now isn't the best time of year to be buying an RX-7 in Ontario unfortunatley. however i've noticed that there is an abundance of nice, cheap FC's in the states.

now i was wondering, how difficult is the process to import a US car into Canada? if the process is easy enough, i'd consider grabbing a car from Michigan or NY and bringing it up here. if anyone has any info regarding, or knows where i can go to obtain such info, that would be greatly appreciated.

thanks alot guys,

-Brian

******* awesome. 15 years or older, admissable with no modifications. that's kind of what i figured, since cars coming from Japan are the same way. but i just wanted to make sure.

thanks alot for the link KK! i would totally buy your car if i had the fundage, but unfortunatley my budget is ideally $3k CDN or less.

thanks for the help guys!

15 years or older if not sold in cnd. There is a more complete list on that site that shows cars that are admissible. Most cars sold in cnd and in the us u can import from the states.

Just need to add things like day time running lights
