#21 of 22 Exporting cars to Europe? by nicholas728

Oct 24, 2011 (1:33 pm)

I would like to get into a little side venture of exporting cars to Europe.
 
I understand that cars in the U.S. are much cheaper than they are in Europe, and there is a demand for high end- U.S. cars in Europe.
 
I've thought of starting my own little export firm of cars to europe. I've done a bit of research but have some questions that are hard to find answers for.
 
1. Sometimes modifications have to be done to the cars to export them; I'm assuming they are all very similar modifications. Does anyone know the cost/ time this takes?
 
2. I've read a few discussions about dealers not selling cars for exports. If I buy it in my name, ship it, and transfer ownership, should I have any problems?
 
3. Is there any opportunity for importing European cars in the U.S. to make money as well?
 
Any answers / suggestions would be much appreciated!
 
Thank You,
Nicholas
