I'm pretty sure the duty and taxes are going to kill you. If you do finance your car somehow, I don't think the duty will be included. You may also need a whole lot of paperwork too. Just wait it out. Actually, look into this further because I'm too lazy to.

That would be nice. I may have to go that route as well depending on whether I can get one. The dealers around here keep on telling me that they have a bunch on order, but don't expect delivery until May. If that's the case, and the previous rumor is correct regarding no 2005 production after March 31 so they can retool for the 2006 model, I doubt the local dealers will see many. In fact, sales in Canada seem to be an after-thought for GM considering I haven't heard of a Canadian Autoshow yet that has had an SS S/C present. I just received confirmation, from a number of sources, that our autoshow this weekend won't have one... I already have tickets !! arrgggg

The toronto autoshow had one....initially for the first few days they didnt have the SS/sc there but supposedly a bunch of people were complainig that it wasnt there....so they brought one up....Im lucky I waited till the last friday of the show, cuz that was the only car I realy wanted to see...so if i were you I would get a bunch of people to complain why its not there

There is no duty or tarrifs between Canada and the USA - it's FREE TRADE.
However Canada does have the GST, something the USA needs (sorry to say it).
