Sport is on a distinguished road
Here's what I know in no particular order:

- Car must be 15 years or older from its manufacture date. In this case, it's 2007, so the latest car you can import is 1992.

- Almost all Japan-imported cars arrive in Vancouver, and most likely delivered to Toronto via rail.

- Canadian dealers will charge you for: cost of the car, all related shipping costs, and applicable taxes.

- Car's worth differs from car-to-car. A lot of JDM cars I see posted are modified, therefore there is really no set standard.

- From a government standpoint, all you need to register the car in Ontario is a safety mechanical inspection certificate, proof of insurance, and all related documents that came with the car (ie. shipping manifest, customs documents, etc.).

Some sights to help you:

Import Concern, Inc. - Japanese Used Vehicle Importer (located in Mtl)

FEAST AE/RS JAPAN (in mtl also I think)

Willz Leasing Corporation - Welcome (toronto, but beemers only)

Good luck

Does anyone know what's involved in importing a right-hand drive vehicle from Japan into Canada (Ontario, specifically) would entail? Pointers would also be much appreciated!
