I know there have been several threads about importing a US model S into Canada but I have a bit of a unique situation. My friend is currently in Phoenix doing a residency. He wants to buy a S85D but apparently he will have problems importing a US Model S into Canada. He's only down in Phoenix for another year then he is moving back to Canada. What are his options?
It seems like his best option is to buy the car and get it delivered to Calgary then drive it back to Phoenix. Can he not simply ask Tesla to build him a S85D to canadian spec and charge him whatever it costs for the difference and have it delivered to Phoenix? He would like to avoid the long drive from Calgary through Vancouver, down the west coast and then across to Phoenix if he can.
Any ideas?
