Import
Street Racing Cars
by: Matt Garrett
There is no other exciting
fun in the town than the late night street car
racing. You are probably among the street cars
racers who are in love with racing and money
making. Though street car racing is illegal in
countries, but who can stop the fans. Several
street car racers dump their old cars and search
for new and better racing cars. If you are one
street racer who wants to dump his old car and
import a street racing car, its time you act
with maturity and sharpness. After all you are
importing your love- your street racing car.
Every country sets its own
car importing and exporting rules. There is no
such standard tariff rate and import duty on
cars. They differ from country to country. So it
is very important for you to choose, from where
you want to import your car. There are some
basic guidelines which you should follow before
you import your car.
Research
The first thing you should
decide before you import a street racing car is
the model. You should determine the model you
want to buy. With the availability of internet,
you have thousands of sites providing you with
detailed information about street racing cars.
All you need to do is intensive research. You
must search for the one which suits you the
best— budget wise and usage wise. You should
compare the prices of the cars within a specific
country and among the other countries. This
would give you an idea of the lowest price of
the car available.
Check Specifications
After you have made your
mind on a specific model, check out the standard
specification of your car. As specifications
vary from country to country, it’s important for
you to compare the different specifications of
the same car provided by different countries.
You should choose the options you want in your
car to keep its price comparatively down.
Shop Around
You should always compare
the price of your car in multiple dealers within
and outside the countries. You should also check
for the retail price of the car, the VAT
inclusion, discount on order, deposit required
and mode of payment. You should also shop around
to find out the import tax you have to pay for
importing a car from a certain country to yours.
If you have all these information in hand, it
would be easier for you to import your car from
a country from where it costs less.
Additional Costs
You should never neglect
the additional costs which are related to your
vehicle import. These additional costs include
the ferry tickets, hotel, transit plates, fuel
and insurance costs. These costs are very much
important which determine the total cost of
importing your car.
Buying and Importing
Your Car
You should select the mode
of the payment which is comfortable to both the
dealer and you. While you import your car, you
should ask for the written conformation of all
financial transactions and agreements. You
should know your dealer in detail and ask him to
arrange for temporary export or transit plates.
After Importing Your
Street Racing Car
Once you have got your
street racing car, you should get your vehicle
registered locally by a vehicle registration
office. Some of the paper work included after
your car import is certificate of newness,
certificate of conformity, temporary
registration plates and documents, temporary
insurance certificate, invoice of sale. All
these documents are to be obtained by your
dealer. |
