Buying from the US...

So a few days ago the wife floated me the idea of buying the 128i in the states, and making bit of a small vacation out of it....

This of course seemed like a good idea, as we'd probably save about 3-5 k by doing that.

So she looked into what we needed for bringing it across the border, and I contacted the BMW in Seattle.

Unfortunately their response was less then what we had hoped for:

" I want to thank you for your vehicle inquiry. We cannot sell new cars for import into Canada. I really wish that we could do so, as we get several calls per day, asking us to sell cars to Canadians, for import back accross the border. We can sell pre owned cars, jusyt not new ones. The new I series definately falls under the classification of, "new" Sorry that I cannot help you."
:bs:

So I was just wondering if anyone else had looked into going to the US to buy their 1'er, and if you got the same kind of response?
