My first question about this post is how high is high and what is the current mileage?
And what you will have to do is what everyone has to do.
Go to MofT and register the car, pay the taxes, get a certification here, get e-test here and done and done.
He imported the car from the US. Make sure all of his paperwork was and is in order before you buy to make sure he did this corretly.

for the mileage, you can see on the pic..it is around 135000km..
and he is asking 7500..
this is what i got from himm
Rust ââ¬â Two small spots on the tailgate that have been touched up could be repaired better.
Body Damage ââ¬â None that i know of except the front bumper is cracked and the usual stone chips. The car is a US import and was imported as a VGA ââ¬â Rear bumper only was damaged and replaced as far as i was told and an inspection seemed to confirm this. Paint on the rear bumper does look a different shade in a certain light.
Cluster ââ¬â Is indeed in MPH ââ¬â 135000 is the conversion approximately
I have owned the car since December 2009 ââ¬â I too was looking for a long time and finally found it. Plan was a long term keeper but im getting divorced so the car has to go. So really i donââ¬â¢t want to sell but it probably has to happen.
I mailed you some photos ââ¬â Let me know if there is anything else
Modified ââ¬â By the previous owner it has a different clutch and aluminium flywheel ââ¬â K&N drop in filter ââ¬â EBC brake pads and thats is i think.

Keep in mind if it dose have Salvage on the title, you may not be able to regiester the car in ontario, but then again in Quebec it's illegal to put a car that's been classed as a right off back on the roads in Quebec, as per their new laws. if your buying it for parts that's another story.

A Google search for VGA resulted in
It stands for: Vehicule Gravement Accidente.
Translation= Badly Accidented Vehicle.
and
"VÃÂhicule Gravement AccidentÃÂ" which roughly translates "vehicle in severe accident"

Your crazy. walk, no run away. First off, and I may be wrong, you cannot import a car to Canada from the US that has been written off and resell it here or even license it in Ontario if it has ever had salvage title. Only can bring it here and use it for parts.
If you werrie about bring a car in from the US, I can and will help. It's easy. And there are companies out there that will inspect a car for you.
Go get the EAP from the US.
I would.

As meford said, find a nice clean EAP in the states. Prefer. the one without mods.
A couple of my friends brought the cars from US&A and they did say that it's easy. My next car will be definitly from down south and I will be doing this myself.
Milege is too freacking high on this car, some damage that you already know about and you still wanna waste your money by going up to french land and see it.
Forget about this car. And I swear you better not turn a nice looking EAP into gayed out sticker car :)

I would go for an SVT or ST . But I like hatchback and I think the ST only comes sedan here .
