Replying to: jsmith1957 (Nov 22, 2007 6:36 am) Thanks for the heads-up! I agree, remember that the rebates are to the dealer and there is still room to negotiate! $4000 off a V6 Accord is a great place to start and because the Accords are built in NA, no duties. Thanks; |

Replying to: jsmith1957 (Nov 22, 2007 6:36 am) I know there is room to negotiate the F&PDI...but I'm now aware of it being waived completely....i could be wrong though. If you factored in this cost my savings were over $2000 + $4000 rebate. I could probably wait it out another month or two and save another $500-$1000, but the wife wanted to car before Christmas. I would say enough of a discount to make the decision

Replying to: eieio2 (Nov 21, 2007 6:54 am) At least 13 but less than 14 litres per 100 km: $1,000 At last 14, but less than 15 litres per 100 km: $2,000 At least 15 but less than 16 litres per 100 km: $3,000 16 or more litres per 100 km: $4,000 See website at: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/agency/budget/2007/excise-e.html I am pretty sure you pay this right at the border (when you pay GST). Note, you also pay $100 excise for air conditioning.

TC just returned my call. I had left message asking for clarification on importing 2008 Highlander Ltd or Sport built after Sept 1, 2007. In no uncertain terms the TC guy said I must get a letter of compliance with the CMVSS114 from the manufacturer. If an after market immobilizer is installed then the manufacturer has to okay it. Congradulations to all that have been able to import a post 9/1 Highlander. I have the guys name at TC and I recorded the call. My wife still doesn't want the Blue pre 9/1/07 Highlander. guess I'll sit this out for now. |

Replying to: nowarranty3 (Nov 22, 2007 7:49 am) I have also spoken with Toyota Canada and the rep verbally confirmed based on my VIN that the immobilizer is 100% CMVSS compliant (Highlander LTD - 10/07 build). Good luck.

Replying to: tri_biker (Nov 22, 2007 8:01 am) That's why I called TC, as it seemed there was so much inconsistency with the RIV people. What do you mean by the US specs document. I piece of paper in my hand would make me feel a whole lot better. What was the Rep's atitude like? |
