SVX Prices in Canada

It’s been my experience that the SVX commands a substantially higher price in Canada than it does in the States. I think it's cheaper to buy from the States - even after paying currency exchange, duty, GST, PST and (depending on location) freight, Registrar of Imported Vehicles fee, cost of modification and Federal and Provincial inspection fees. What's more, there's not many for sale in Canada.

When I bought my first SVX (from Texas) I found the processes for importing and getting the car registered and licensed in Canada to be quite intimidating but then I found the site riv.ca. It’s very helpful. My second SVX (from Salt Lake City) was much easier because I was familiar with the process.

So if you’re thinking about importing an SVX into Canada, take a look at the site. If you get stuck, PM me and I’ll see if I can help.
