Replying to: gpard (Sep 03, 2009 2:47 pm) Aston -- nice choice. Love the Vantage.   Don't know the requirements, but here are some thoughts on how to potentially best go about it:   - Call Aston Canada / US and tell them that you're an existing owner and are meticulous about the care of your pride and joy. You want to find out if any work needs to be done, and if so, does it need to be done by a dealer. Get the list of work that needs to be done in writing from Aston. - Ask Aston if it matters if it is done by a dealer in Canada or the US. Get that in writing - If Aston confirms that the work can be done by a US dealer, I'd make the purchase contingent on it being done by the seller (unless it is a private deal). There cannot be that many people stepping up to by a used Vantage. If you've got cash in hand, they should do the mods as part of the deal.   Long story short. Get everything in writing. Get the seller to pay for the mods.   Good luck!

Replying to: doc911 (Jan 31, 2008 9:25 am) Hello Doc.    When you say there are no modification required on the part of the odometer, are you saying that by switching the metrics on the onboard computer is suffice? since you would still have the dials in miles right? only the computer system are set to kilometers?

Replying to: right2 (Sep 08, 2009 8:49 pm) As long as the speedometer has kph on it (on a US model it will probably be the smaller of the 2 with MPH being the dominant), then you are ok. Now some Porsche's come with ONLY MPH on it. If that is the case, then you will have to get a KPH speedometer.

My 911 has an MPH speedometer, and KPH digital speed readout...self programmable with the owner's manual..And that got approved last year. Porsches are the easliest luxury car to import.

#4482 of 4518 Purchasing Lexus in USA by mikem17 Sep 27, 2009 (7:17 am)
Has anyone recently purchased a new or nearly new ES350 or RX350 in the US lately? If so can you recommend any dealers close to Toronto.   I visited a dealership in Buffalo and they seemed quite knowledgeable about selling to Canadians but they have not responded to my emails of late.   Thanks   Mike

#4484 of 4518 Importing an Audi Q7 from US to Canada by mh10 Oct 04, 2009 (3:34 am)
Does anyone have any advice as to how to go about this process?   Specifics on taxes? Compliance issues?   Any advice on companies that have expertise in this area?   Thanks.
