thanks for clearing that up, I was actually pretty shocked when LP Auto(revscene sponsor) told me that I had to pay the excise tax on a 2006 SUV, Exact words were" since the car you are importing will first see service in CANADA (Oct 2009) you have to pay" also stated they charged another customer that imported a 2005 SUV the excise tax! How ever I did not end up importing through them since clearly they are not aware of the procedures or are trying to make a little more cash by telling this to customers who are importing for the first time!
Thanks for the info, and a great write up.
A little tip for 1st time importers do some of your own reasearch before letting a import company do all the work for you, I almost learned the hard way!!
