Buy Canadian or Import?
So, for my inaugural post:
Ever since I first saw an SVX a few years ago I've been in love with it. I'm finally in a position where I can look at buying one. I do however have a problem there. I live in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Winter is long and rough, and we use salt on the roads. Even after a few years cars can show rust damage from the salt. Now IF the car was well maintained, properly undercoated and rust proofed, it will escape most of that. But salt rust is insidious, and a 10+ year old car could only escape by a miracle. Plus there are only something on the order of 1000 SVX's of all years in Canada.
So my question is this: Is it smarter for me to find one locally in the best condition I can, or to head south and try to import one and pay all the fees associated with that (A process I'm not familiar with)?
Thanks for any help!
