Afraid I need to revive this thread.
Were there anyone from BC that attempted this scenario? I'm looking at a 08 Escape Hybrid with most options and I'm the numbers I'm looking at (MSRP) are 31K in WA and 42K in BC. This is before taxes, and GST would be charged on import anyway - no duty since it is a US vehicle. There is a $2000 rebate on the 7% PST in BC for Hybrid cars and I'm assuming this applies to imported cars as well. Is this a fair assumption?
