In theory, you could buy one direct and have it stored in the US for six months before bringing into Canada and then you would be OK with no void warranty.

I lived in the US for a while with work and had imported my 03 Canadian 350Z into the US (registered and got Arizona plates) and then later brought it back into Canada. A lot of hassle I can tell you. I had no warranty issues while in the US and had the "feathering" 350Z tires replaced under warranty there...should be the same the other way around.

I looked into this a while back.

My understanding is that it has to be landed in the US.
In other words, you can't just store it, the car needs to be put on the road.

This would require that a US citizen own it in order to license it.
I happen to have a sister in PA & I was going to work it through her.
