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.
