Let me know the status of your situation.

Larry
Very interesting but our laws are very confuse, the last upadte in 12/2008 was only for year model 1999 vehicles paying 10% plus 15% sales tax and others have to pay 50% plus sales tax as I said previously.

This week I was talking with the customs broker and he said that the authorities finally "said yes" to the importation and maybe they will accept a comercial value of $17,000 US dollars and this means that I have to pay something like $12,500 plus other charges from the customs broker.

We won the battle but the dream is very expensive and I preffer to let the Eagle fly. :cry: :cry:

Julio,
Thanks for the reply. Everyones rules are confusing and work against anyone who is trying to do things legitimately. Sorry to hear that the import fees are going to do in your desire to fulfill your dream. Best of luck to you and yours.

I think the first thing to do would be to consume a couple of adult beverages of your choice and admire what you have been able to accomplish! :mrgreen: :twisted:
