Meh, its just electronic records for something you had to do anyway. When I brought my X5, I had to submit the title and bill of sale to US customs 72 hours in advance of my crossing.

Doesn't make sense to import right now, the CAD is shit...

Painless process when we imported my oldmans Duramax. One added step, is probably worth it if you're saving a shitload (Which today you really aren't like Wayne eluded to)

It's probably not that much of a difference when buying from a dealer; but it sounds like if you're buying from a private seller, they need to do more grunt work which they may not be inclined to (unless they hit you up for a premium).

You need a broker now, no private person can file the papers anymore. It's not much hassle it will just cost you about $250 more for your US car now
