Look for jassz on the Diesel Discusison board. She recently went through getting an American car into Canada. I don't remember the specifics, but she went through quite a bit. I think a lot of it was due to the shipping company, but again, I'm not sure...

Wish I could help more...good luck!

I don't think it is a big deal.
Friend of mine imports US cars a lot!
If the buyer contacts Canada Customs in advance, they will provide him with all the details necessary.
I do know, life is a lot simpler, if the paperwork is done in advance.

Everything you need to know can be found here at the Transport Canada web site.

If it's more than 15 years old - no problem. If it's less, you have to get into the specifics.

I just want to say thanks guys. My buyer backed out of the deal because I didnt have service records from a MB dealer itself. What an ass... That person was a very rude buyer, even if he wanted my car, I wouldnt sell it to him cuz of the way he treated me and my employees over the phone
