So you can visit China, buy the car, and drive it home saving a $9,000 thanks to CPC? Nice!

- dmix 9y agoIf there's a system that can be exploited, it will be exploited... How much does it cost to personally transport a car across the pacific ocean to the westcoast of the US/Canada? I've heard of people doing that for nice Japanese import cars. Otherwise I could see plenty of these cars showing up in South East Asia or Russia. But then again, it will still have to find a market with a few thousand markup (to make flipping them worth it) which will likely have plenty of competition from gas cars...
- balls187 9y ago> How much does it cost to personally transport a car across the pacific ocean to the westcoast of the US/Canada? It's expensive. Import duties, plus having to go through the hassle of compliance with US vehicle standards. At your own peril, you may chose to ignore either or both of these, with the risk of: Jail, punitive fines, confiscation of your illegally imported vehicle, and basically be on every federal criminal importation watch list imaginable.
- snaky 9y agoI was talking about India, Mongolia, Vietnam, and other Asian countries where you can literally drive home from China. I wonder would it be restricted to sell to China citizens only - it wouldn't help though.
