Okay, i would have thought you guys would have been on top of this, but the RIV list was updated, as of July 4th. And now the GTO's among alot of other cool little cars are allowed in.

I emailed riv to confirm and see if anything else has to be changed to comply and got no responce.

Laffs

Let me know if you here back, but I had to call them to get replies when I did my Firebird. I want to know because this is the car I want to get once my Firebird sells.

Laffs

Anyone hear anything? I tried calling the RIV on my lunch but was on hold forever... I hope that we really can get the GTO's now.

Nothing yet, I have tried to call and sent here a couple e mails either she is on vacation or just ignoring us. If this is for real I have to find someone to buy my car.

Laffs

Her? The RIV is one girl?

When I got my Trans am I had contacted them and the responce was from Cristina Lima. She got back to me right away, but with this GTO thing no responce at all.

Laffs

Oh I had someone else email me when I did the Firebird. I'm just gonna call their general help line and complain till I get someone with asnwers.

I called the RIV last week and confirmed that the GTO is no longer on the exclusion list. However since it is built in Australia it will be subject to 6.1% duty. If you go the RIV website you can view the list of import excluded vechiles and the GTO is no longer on the list. Other export costs/fees:

+ $204.75 RIV registration
+ GST on top on bill of sale value (total + sate tax converted to $Cdn)
+ $100 AC tax
+ 8% RST on purchase price when you licence in ON

This is awesome news. I'd love to have a GTO.


Also, stupid AC tax...I haven't used it once, but still had to pay $100 for the damn thing.
