Canada Salvage Title Vehicle - Transfer to US
I'm looking at a car with a salvage title. I verified that there was no structural damage to the car, so I'm not worried about that. The damage was to the radiators, headlights, front sensors, and front bumper. Those components were expensive enough that it resulted in an insurance write-off, but all of those components have all been replaced. So from my perspective, it's a great price on the car and I'm OK with the prior damage and repair.
The problem is that I'm moving to the US next year. I know that cars can be transferred to the US by paying the 2.5% duty. But it seems like there is a restriction on salvage titles, even if the vehicle has been repaired to "as new" condition and it meets all emissions and safety equipment requirements.
Is there any way I can transfer this car to the US next year when I move? I'd love own this car and bring it when I move. Thanks!
