Can Canadians get the TRD SE version?

A buddy of mine really likes the all black TRD SE FJ.
Can we get on in Canada? or will he have to paint his roof black?

Re: Can Canadians get the TRD SE version?

I'm sure you could, but you would have to import it from the states. I can only imagine the small fortune you would be paying for it.

I had a customer bring an 01 Integra from Canada to the states (Florida), don't know about reciprocity.

Ask your Tax Collector/DMV whatever you call it up there, eh?

They still haven't heard about(at least my dealer).


Convert the price of the TRD in CND funds, multiply by 6.1%(for duty), multiply that by 6% for GST(and PST if aplicable).

Add to that the RIV fee, transportation(whether you drive it up or have it hauled). Possible your insurance company may want an out of Province and out of Country isnpection done as well.


Make for some big $$$$ but he would have one cool FJ!

Wonder how the local dealerships would handle warranty claims etc. I know they should and all, but it is a dealership..........

Re: Can Canadians get the TRD SE version?

Last I heard, there wasn't going to be any TRDs in Canada.
Also, I know if you import privately from Japan, the vehicle has to be 10 or 15 years old before you are able to insure it here. I looked into it when the Toyota MR2 Spyder came out. Unless it's changed in the last year or two...

Re: Can Canadians get the TRD SE version?

I was told around November 08 for the TRD in Canada. The source is a mechanic at Toyota....so it may mean nothing.

Re: Can Canadians get the TRD SE version?

"Vehicles manufactured for sale in countries other than Canada and the United States do not comply with the requirements of the Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Act, CANNOT be altered to comply and CANNOT be imported into Canada. The only exceptions to this rule are vehicles fifteen (15) years old or older as determined by the month and year in which the vehicle was manufactured and buses manufactured before January 1, 1971."

Qouted from here: Importation of vehicles into Canada from countries other than the United States

Here is a list of Admissable and Inadmissable vehicles from the RIV.

You could negotiate a "gift" deal.

EDIT: Oops, see above.
