Probably not worth it on that car in my opinion, but here's how to go about it:

you have some sweet rides,are they all from calgary?

[nbaker00]

Which rides are you referring to?

Probably the ones in your signature.

It's probably not worth it to cross the border for a used car, most of the savings are on new ones. The only real used deals are on Mercedes or BMW or Porsche, mostly the higher end imports. 3000GTs are pretty cheap anyway, the gearboxes pretty much fall out of them after you leave the lot.

Not financially worth it to import unless you're looking at $25k+ before import.. Even then that's like break even point..

And on benz, no savings until you go to a newer S or SL.
