That sucks!
I can pick up a used 04 in the States for around $145,000.00 USD.
Toronto Lambo wants to sell its used 04's for around $255,000.00 CAD.
Right now the Canadian Dollar is doing well and I would still save taking the exchange rate. Because of free trade I thought it was duty free, just pay the GST and exchange rate.
Hummm... what to do, what to do???

Default import duties

Free Trade between the U.S. and Canada only applies to products made in either of the two countries -- Lambos are made in Italy and are subject to the same import duty as a Porsche, Bentley, Lotus or any other vehicle not made in the States.

about US$215k -- you also have to compare apples to apples, as I believe that the one that Toronto has is fully optioned with transparent engine bonnet and the like....

Does Roy know anything about bringing an '04 G-Car into Canada from the States or is this something that I should forget about?
