It would be kind of hilarious to buy a BMW as "European Delivery", pick it up in Europe, drive it for the maximum period there, then send it back to the USA (cost included), drive it (or store it) for 6 months, then ship it back to Europe. I wonder for which models this actually makes sense.
(US doesn't get many nice models like the 550d, though)
- abcd_f 13y agoThere are import taxes, there is a cost of shipping it back to Europe and there's a cost of re-certification to European standards. It still makes sense $-ly, but it's a hassle.
- rdl 13y agoMaintenance/warranty and resale are the main things which dissuade me from doing this (although I'd probably do it for a Model S; probably not for a BMW).
