that's OEM, don't they all have that? Maybe those with the subwoofer don't have it but the GT2 and GT3 have the same thing with their proper logo on it.
This is behind the rear seat obviously

Hi, according to that import website you listed in the description:
"You should obtain a temporary license plate / insurance card from the Canadian Province in which you are buying the vehicle – even if you extended your U.S. insurance to cover the it. You will also pay GST but you should not have to pay PST as a non-resident of the province."
If you met me at the border, would I have to deal with the temporary license plate/insurance stuff?
How much would the GST be?
Also, wouldn't the buyer also have to pay a gas guzzlers tax since it is below the EPA 22.5 mpg? According to Edmunds, it has a combined 18mpg, which means according to the IRS tax code (https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/26/4064), the importer/buyer has to pay $2600 as a gas guzzler tax and if he doesn't, he won't be able to register the vehicle in the USA.
Plus, the 2.5% import duty would be around $1000.
Therefore, the buyer/importer is looking at an additional $3600 on top of the purchase price (NOT including GST), just to import back into the USA.
Is that correct? Does the fact that it was originally titled in the USA give it any tax breaks?
Thanks!!!

I dont believe there is tax is to be paid on a vehicle that was originally in the US that was exported and then is coming back to the US. The tax was paid when the car was originally sold in the US; it doesnt get taxed again by the US. It was taxed by Canada however when it went from the US to Canada.

Just to be clear - for importing to the US, you just pay the 2.5% duty.
You do not pay a gas guzzler tax as referenced below.
The reference to GST/PST is for Canadians importing into Canada.
