Replying to: freshtunes (Nov 21, 2007 11:31 pm) But when I ran the numbers I found, as freshtunes indicated, that the comparison was based on US MSRP vs. a Canadian very hard bargaining deal. The real cash price in the US would have been lower with some bargaining. If you suceeded in getting only $1,000 off the MSRP of $26,733 in the US, after excise tax, PST and GST the comparative price would have been $1,200 less so the savings would have been $3,200. If you could beat the US dealer down by $2,000, the savings would have been $4,400.

Good news for RAV people. List just got updated in last few minutes It now says: 2007 AND 2008 RAV4 (sport and base models) built after September 1st, 2007 (see notes) 2007 AND 2008 RAV-4 Limited 2008 Highlander Sport 2008 Highlander HV 2008 4Runner 2008 Highlander Limited 2007 AND 2008 Highlander (base model) built after September 1st, 2007 (see notes) So no see notes section in front of RAV limted. I hope this does mean that RAv limited do not need letter too.

I found something on RIV website regarding the Honda Recall Clearance Letter, go to www.riv.ca, click on recall clearance letter, then go to the bottom and click on consult the contact information list. Go to Honda contact info, and you will find the web info for the Honda owners link recall letter. If riv has this info on their website i'm sure they would except the letter in lieu of the Manufactures recall clearance letter. I spoke to them and they said they would except it. |

Am I reading the RIV chart section 5 - Pre Sept 1st 2008 manufacture correctly, when I conclude it's OK to import ANY 2007 Highlander into Canada? Thanks. |

A women named Diane from TC returned my call this morning. She said there will be no press conference or imminent decision. She said if I bought a car manufactured After Sept 01 that was inadmissible it would not be given amnesty and to do so would have Transport Canada break their own laws. She said I could however get a letter of compliance from Toyota. When she became aware in our discussion that I was fully informed with copies of the amnesty letter and October VAFUS she told me to fax copies of the info and my story to TC I'll keep everbody posted but it doesn't look good to me for a resolution anytime soon. |
