Good luck registering it.  Some states are pretty easy, but others (like
California) will send you packing.  Once they see the ZZZ in the VIN, you're
dead in the water.  They'll request Customs docs, DOT docs, EPA testing,
etc., etc....

It's definitely getting harder to illegally "backdoor" cars through Canada.

Happy Frye Day,

Jeff

Wow - That is nice and with the exchange rate (although not nearly what it
used to be) you'd have a pretty fair discount. Alas, I certainly don't have
the cash (nor could I afford to finance) something like that right now
either - but that would be soooo tempting.
