Ronn, there is a lot of incorrect information in your post. When buying a used vehicle in the US (which is the only option because GM says so), you don't pay any US tax on the purchase. You do pay GST & a $206 (after tax) RIV fee at the boarder when you import but you do not pay any customs charges (duty) for any vehicle built in North America (Canada, US & Mexico). TThe Camaro is built in Oshawa, hence no duty. Depending on your province of residence when you register the vehicle in your provice you will pay provincial sales tax, just like any new or used vehicle purchased in Canada. Therefore, besides the $206 RIV fee, you will pay the exact same taxes on a "used" (pre-owned) Camaro in the US that you pay for a "New" Camaro in Canada. The difference is you pay a lot less CDN taxes on a pre-owned $30k Camaro then you do on a $45k new Camaro. That more then makes up for the $206 RIV (Registered Import Vehicles of Canada) fee.

- I stand corrected, I've only bought an ATV in the states so I was unsure about the process for cars. The info that I posted was from a car salesman who I went to because he buys vehicles in the states. He did seem a little shady but it was the only information I had and was trying to help. Thanks for the info, much appreciated.
