    The search for an Avant is on!

    The search for a clean 03 Avant is underway. Some really nice rides out there! Stumbled across this beauty, but it's an 04 which means another year longer than I already need to wait for the 03. Too bad as I would probably already be drafting up papers to purchase... lol. It's also a Plus+ for that added exclusivity. I LOVE this color combination. Same as my friends Volvo V70R.

    Guess you'll find out. I've spent a lot of time researching the requirements and up to date on what is required. Gov't website is clear about it being from month and day of manufacture. Be a shame to get it all the way to the shore only to find out you can't clear it within the timeframe they permit and require it deported...

    "What happens if Canada border officials find a vehicle inadmissible into Canada when it is presented for importation?Vehicles found inadmissible are immediately denied entry at the Canadian border. Vehicles granted entry subject to further verification that later fail to meet import requirements in Canada must be exported out of the country or destroyed under supervision of Canadian customs officials."

    For the select few that like the car in white, this one is pretty clean. Not available for import until Sept 2019 though... Booo

    Can you share who you are working with in Europe? I would like to import an RS6 Avant into the US also. Does anyone know what our rules are?

    Canada is 15 years to import?? Lucky! We have to wait 25 years in the US before we can get the good stuff. Speaking of which, would any of my northern brothers have a line on an R34 skyline gt-r? they are getting close!
