If your car is the right combo of options and not too much of a premium I know yours will sell. It's a stunning car, and I'm only sorry I never got to go for a ride in it.
6.1% duty plus shipping plus hassle, plus a flight down to look at the car, Canadian cars are still attractive to buy.

Good advice Jamie. This makes a good point of how we get screwed both ways. Overpay when buying new in comparison to buying new in the US, HUGE depreciation when selling because we have to compete with the US market.

The difference now with our dollar approaching par is roughly 7 % in favour of the US cars if you buy from a Canadian dealer or co. that has to charge GST (the 7% being the 6.1% duty and RIV,A/C and shop inspection fees,etc.) This is also exclusive of any travel or shipping costs, which you might also have travelling to other parts of Canada to actually find a Canadian car for sale (like hens' teeth).
There are still buyers out there either intimidated or simply not willing to go through any of the import protocols and they would be good candidates to buy the Canadian car.

Not necessarily would you have to pay PST. Not in Alberta! 
If the purchaser is from Alberta and gets it shipped FOB back to Alberta, there is no PST. I did this once a few years back. You just pay the $150 bucks for the Out-of-Province safety when it arrives and present it when you register the car in Alberta.

Hello Dennis,
Thanks for the details and information about your car history. It seems you are a sincere person. I want to inform you that I will buy your car at your last selling price (Including VAT). I am a captain with the United Nations troop in Afghanistan, on war against terrorism.
Based on the United States legislative and executive decision for withdrawing troops from Afghanistan come next year, I have been deployed to work in your country military base soonest. Our mission is to help beef up terrorist targeted states, mostly the United States and the European Union on the war against terrorism. I will use the car while in your country because I will need a car for myself and that is why I contacted you for this deal okay.
On the other hand I want to inform you that there is $16.2 million USD in my disposition. This money was recovered from a mansion belonging to one of Taliban Kandahar men who was a crude oil exporter here in Afghanistan. The money was stacked in a trunk box all in 100 dollar bills. I deposited this money with a Red Cross Agent informing him that we are making contact for the real owner of the money because I have intended to keep this money for my use as soon as my time here is over. There is no official record of this money. It is under my power to approve whoever comes forth for this money. I cannot move this money to my Germany, because I will be in Canada for about 3 years, so I need someone I could trust If you accept this deal, I will authorize the transfer of the money to Canada where you will be the beneficiary because I am a uniformed person and I cannot be parading such an amount moreover I will need to explain the source of the money if I try to claim it in person.
This is where you coming in now, I need to present you as the beneficiary. See, I have a 100% authentic means of transferring the money through diplomatic courier service to Canada . I just need your acceptance and assurance, that you can handle this responsibility and clear the consignment from the customs when it gets to Canada. I will give to you the complete details you will need for us to carry out this transaction successfully. I decided to find someone that is real and not imaginary and that is why I went to a secured car site where I can be sure that the person is real. I just have to be sure whom I am dealing with.
If you are interested please send me your personal information and I will get back to you with further information. I am writing from a fresh email account so if you are not interested do not reply to this email and please delete this message, if no response after 3days, I will then search for someone else.
I wait for your contact details such as.
YOUR FULL NAME:___________________
FULL ADDRESS:______________________
OCCUPATION:________________________
YOUR DIRECT TELEPHONE NUMBER:_________
AND YOUR PASSPORT PHOTO OR ANY OF YOUR PICTURE:_________
So we can go on. In less than (5days) the money will be in your country and I will come over for my share. I will give to you 30% of the sum and 70% is for me. I hope I am been fair on this deal. With your full information I will be able to register the consignment and make the Shipment to you without delay.

Thanks Jag. I can't believe we went through all of last summer without a meet. We'll definitely have to get together soon. Forecast looks pretty nice next week. I will hopefully have the car early next week. Already promised Sean a ride.
Edit: Not a golfer...just don't have the time to spare. We should plan a meet for the Spring or early summer though.
