In addition to a number of minor edits, this version of the guide takes into account two MAJOR positive developments since the release of the 6th edition:

1. On June 25th, the Government of Canada announced the amendment to the Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations (MVSR) whereby Canadian bumper standards for passenger vehicles would be harmonized with similar safety standards from the US and Europe.  Canadian importers have been awaiting this new regulation since the proposed amendment was announced in March 2008.  Depending on the vehicle, this means that several thousand dollars in bumper change costs are eliminated.

2. On July 5th, Transport Canada announced that the Letter of Admissibility was no longer required for BMW, Jaguar, Land Rover, Mercedes and Volvo.  Canadian vehicle importers no longer have to pay a fee to these manufacturers to determine if the vehicle may be legally imported into Canada.

NOW IS A GREAT TIME TO IMPORT A VEHICLE FROM THE USA
