That goes without saying. Of course there is compliance to deal with. The dealership will work with the mfr when destined to the states. There is special pricing where you save a little to pick up the car in Germany. They encourage you to take it to the Autobahn and across Europe before sending it to the States. The money you save goes to your travel expenses in Europe. Takes up to 10 weeks to the West Coast.
