I am about 3.5 hours north of Syracuse NY, you are welcome to and inspect.Many people ask what about shipping to USA? Any trouble getting across the border? Do you know any trucking companies? A commercial carrier has to go through a broker crossing the border. There are no tariffs, taxes, or duties but the broker charges a fee...depending on the value, usually around $200. If you come get the car yourself you don't require a broker...its considered a casual entry and the US customs officer fill out the paper work free of charge. This paper work shows you have legally imported the vehicle into the US. It may be required when you license the vehicle in your state. Sorry No trades. Good luck Bidding.
