For Anyone Planning to Buy an 08 GM Vehicle in the U.S GM just fucked anyone looking to import an 08 vehicle into canada

They put every 08 model vehicle on the RIV inadmissable list.
Way to protect that Canadian Premium GM.

People - the best thing you can do is TALK about this!
Let everyone you know about it.
We need this issue heard on a higher level.
If you are sick of being robbed - contact your local MP.
Stop buying new cars. Plain and simple.
GM won't listen to these threads - they will listen to the sound of MONEY - and the lack of it coming from Canada.

GM just took a 39 billion dollar hit this quarter.... YIKES!! That had to hurt. As a quick thought you have to wonder why they dont just have a BLOW OUT and sell off everything they have for hugely discounted prices? Or perhaps offer young first time buyers 10K off or something? At least then you will build up the loyalty that once had them on top of the world and now see even us the die hards of die hards getting sick of their blind greed.

put it this way :
I WOULD buy a Pontiac G6 GXP for 25 000 ( further discounted by GM by 2500 until November 19th )
I will NOT buy one for 40 000 ( with tax 45 000 )
I simply refuse to be robbed. GM is quite simply screwing Canadians.
I have a great job - however, what I *feel* is affordable is 25k for a great looking, sporty car.
for 45k I'll go out and buy a frikken BMW folks. Used if I had to.
I mean come on GM. REALLY!

It's not just cars, but other vechicle manufacturers too. Looking at a new Ski-doo MXZ snowmobile: $US10,399 , or Can$13,299 - that's ~30% difference in price and the damn things are MADE IN CANADA!!!
