Well I dont really want to deal with all the hassles of getting a car up here so I was wondering if anyone knew of a car broker that specializes in bringing in vehicles from the US and doing all the paper work, etc.

I am looking for a 2003-2004 G35 Coupe M6.

I have tried searching here and yahoo but no luck.

Thanks in advance!:)

You can also talk with Russell A. Farrow Ltd. thats who i deal with daily for work for customs, and Kuehne & Nagel for the shipping part. i hope that helps.

Without test driving it? How do you know if the car is in good condition?

I considered doing this as well, same car actually, bit with the duty and exchange rate and other fees, it didn't seem to be much/any cheaper than the G35's in Vancouver. There are other cars where you can definately save a lot of money by importing however.

I used Hansens and it worked out great. Kinda expensive but they did pretty much everything. Sea rail does the same thing but i think a lot more people had issues with them damaging cars and claim problems. Hansens is fully insured and doesnt make u sign that waiver of liability like sea rail does.

basically you just find the car... find out as much info...
if you or him can find someone to check it out its good... if not your bascially taking a risk
i found my car on the local forum down south.... i got to ask him a ton of questions before i bought it!

also something that i would suggest is getting the car inspected there at a dealership or something and get the info from them
that should be safe enough in my opinion :thumbsup:

I also used Hansens forwarding, super easy, they do all the work, and super professional. I highly recommend them
