Don't tell that to my friend, just made $13,000 after expenses importing a
used BMW M3. Mint too, never seen salt.

We should notice a 6-18 month dip as the US absorbs the inflation. For
this, we are being screwed as Canadians.

I am on strike for discretionary spending in Canada. Note the operative
word, for Canada, saving money to spend in the USA. I have tried local
dealers for prices for what I want, some didn't even call back. Those that
did, are outrageously stupid. I am not going to take a bath for greedy
retailers. Have 2 US retailers pining for my business, and both called
back.
