Looking to import from US

let me remind you it is a previously owned vehicle not new. 09 370z 8000miles black on burnt orange, touring NAV, sport package-fully loaded. I have been trying to find one in Canada with all the bells and whissels for total under 40k- the closest I came was one in saskatoon for 37,800CAD same package but with 19000k before any tax or shipping as I live in Ontario. (the total after haggling them a bit with taxes and all would have been 44,000 to 44,500....So here is the breakdown-purchase price-29,000usd (27,912cad @ .9625 exchange). all taxes (gst 5%,pst 8%, duty 6.1%= 5,331cad). shipping via open transport to my door 1,200cad. 125$ for broker plus 100$ AC tax (=255$ including some other small fees).....only thing left to pay is RIV fee (approx 195 plus tax), and plates. Hopefully it has daytime running lights or those will have to be added to meet canadian reqiurements. basicaly everything added up came to 34,698cad (plus 500$ for plates and riv fee). so when I say 6-7k less the nearest comp I mean it-unless you can find a really good deal on one used here, your best bet with the strong dollar too is to buy from the US. thanks-will post pics once vehicle arrives.
