Best bet is to have the vehicle shipped door to door using a company like Hansen's or TFX and it's not that expensive considering it's an enclosed carrier.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Many of us are driving around in US-sourced Porsches since the dealers up here price themselves too high on pre-owned. Now that our CAD $ is worth more than the US $, you'll be seeing more and more of us buying cars in the states!
How about something more long distance - I've got an offer on my car from a guy in Norway. He says he'll handle the shipping arrangements. Assuming the check clears, are there any downsides selling internationally like that?
I hadn't thought about the strength of the Euro...
I did an inspection of a car in Palm Springs for a guy in Sweden.
He bought the car, paid by transfer, did the shipping etc etc - now he's on this forum - no issues as far as I could see (although I wasn't the seller - just the hands and eyes to check out the car)
And Norway doesn't use the Euro.....
I sold my 993 to a Canadian rennlist member. Seems to be a fair amount of paper work upfront and some import duties and taxes. It's easier to pick the car up on the US side of the border then drive it through. Having a car carrier take it through adds to the cost and hassle factor.
Some have, but there is a debate about the legality of it once you cross the border. Many have gotten a trip permit from the DMV in the state they bought it, but some states require that sales taxes be payed before issuing the tag which amounts to double taxation since you pay taxes in the province you register the vehicle in as well. Best to call your local DMV beforehand. In some provinces (like Alberta), you can bring your own plates to the US and drive the vehicle back, but you must register it within 14 days of doing that. Best bet is to have the vehicle shipped door to door using a company like Hansen's or TFX and it's not that expensive considering it's an enclosed carrier. They'll even handle the paper work for you with the US and CDN borders.
There was an article in Excellence (Feb 07) about buying a 911 in California and taking it to Canada labeled 'Califoria Dreaming'.May contain some helpful info.
