Transferring car from US

Anybody ever buy a car from the states and bring it over here to Ontario? I got a car in Georgia that i'm looking at buying. Actually trading. How hard is it to bring over here?

If the car is over 15 years then you can avoid most of those procedures. Call
Customs Canada.

If it's 15 years old or younger, it has to be made to comply with canadian standards (bumpers, DRL, etc etc)
If it's 15 years old or more, it doesn't have to comply. You need to transfer the ownership (arrive at the border with the correct paperwork including title) and you can have the car on the road as soon as it passes a safety and an e-test.
