Buying a 2011 4Runner in NY

Hey Edmonton, did you happen to see this vehicle while searching? It's in Amherst, close to where you are considering buying already and also has 5k miles.

Details of Used 2011 Toyota 4Runner, Amherst, NY - Yahoo! Autos

Hmm, it might even be the same vehicle although you said $37k and this one is listed a bit lower.

Yes thats the car. I added the additional documentation and fees and after some negotiations back and forth it is now close to 36k. Attached is the link giving the inspection on the vehicle

Doesn't seem bad at all considering it was a dealer's car. And it does sound like the inspector was thorough - did he/she spot any rust in the undercarriage?
As for the shipping, will probably cost you about $1,800 U.S. The drive, on the other hand, would be an experience you won't forget - all depends on how much time you have. If you have the time, drive it! And, of course, send pics of your road trip.
Oh, and curious, what was the final selling price?

$35813 including doc and fees and trip permit to be exact. I am planning to drive. Will definitely take pics. Cant find air tickets to Buffalo. Cheapest is $600 excluding taxes. Was planning to go down third week of June. Bummer!!! The sales person is still looking for the running boards, 3M for hood, and block heater

You did well, don't forget to get your ownership papers, recall letter etc to your border crossing well in advance of crossing and be prepared to pay the 6.1 per cent duty. Still way cheaper than buying new in Canada. Nice work!

Yeah will be ready for the 11.1% hit :). (5% GST and 6.1% duty)

I will post this file which is on my other computer. Catered information for folks wanting to import. It seems very comprehensive!!!

Don't forget the Canadian Tire inspection, and the daytime running lights have to be cut over to the ignition switch. But still, you gotta love the Alberta advantage. One province to the left there's an extra .... what, like 7% provincial/HST?... on top of what you're already paying. Damn Canadian commies.
