US Car Import Calculator
Just a FYI ... found this on another site
****************
This tool isn't perfect, but it's a useful way of calculating what it will cost to bring a car in from the US.

It allows you to enter in the US purchase price, select your province and whether it's made in a NAFTA country or not (i.e. whether it's subject to duty). It calculates the sales tax and other fees, etc. I haven't factored in any luxury taxes that may apply (e.g. in BC PST is 10% on cars over $57k), but you can unhide the columns to the right of the table and update the PST values to reflect this.
Also, the exchange rate is as of yesterday, so you'll need to update it manually.
