What's special about this one that makes it about $2000 - 3000 more than most dealers highest prices? If customers know what makes this one special your sale should be easier...

Hi, we're in Ontario... shipping costs are higher than to B.C.

Shipping from BC to Ontario is around $1000 so that still doesn't explain it.

bump....

First: I'm just a JDM window shopper at this point. Haven't bought anything from anyone. However:

It's very easy to sit in Vancouver and scoff at Ontario prices, but if I were to buy the white L400 at RS imports for $11,900, my costs would go something like this:

$11,900 to buy the van
(I don't know if I need to pay taxes in BC AND Ontario, so I'll leave them out of the calculation)
$1,000 to ship it by train to north end of Toronto (where RD is located, more or less)
$200-500 to get it towed to all the places it needs to go for the following:
$75-$100 for the Ontario safety, plus anything the random Ontario mechanic sees that he doesn't like
$50-ish for an E-test
$20 for a UVIP
$100 for a 3rd party appraisal (so MTO can assess taxes)
$75 for a plate and 1 year sticker
$100 to clean off 4,200kms of rail dust (I've shipped cars across country before, they come out filthy).

For a total of $13,500. On top of that, I've taken at least 2 full days off work (@ $41/hr) to get all the shipping/pickup/standing in line at MTO accomplished. I've likely gone to 3 different MTO offices and 2 different mechanics, and exchanged some nasty phonecalls with both, as the average MTO office will tell you that they can't register the vehicle, and the average mechanic will try and rip you off for something.

So, dollar for dollar, RD's price is $400 more than a BC dealer. What does my $400 buy? Aside from a 1 year warranty and a hell of a lot less aggravation, RD is in Ontario so if there is a problem with the car I'm not dealing with someone 4 timezones away. They stock parts, and I can get them the next day.

More importantly, they are also very active in the Ontario JDM scene, proactively dealing with insurance companies, the MTO, and dealer organizations to keep RHD on the road in Ontario. Plus, they bring in good cars. There are dealers in Ontario who are very happy to sell you a $6000 RX-7 or Skyline that will blow up in 3 months. IMHO they do more to feed the anti-JDM stereotypes than an 18-year-old drifting in a Timmies parkinglot.

Again, not trying to start a flame war, not trying to crap on any other dealer. I've bothered pretty much every JDM dealer in the country at one point or another, and they've all been very patient and professional. I've crunched the numbers on everything from importing my own car to flying to BC and driving home, to buying off the lot in Ontario. At the end of the day, unless I count my time as being worth $0, RD's prices are pretty competitive for what they offer.

^^ Thanks.

Btw, our asking price is negotiable as well

Sorry, I didn't mean to be bashing you, I personally wouldn't and couldn't afford to pay that much. I was simply curious as to what extras it had because of the difference in price. If you can get what you're asking though, all the power to you!

-bill of sale from a legit dealer is good enough for taxes. no need for 3rd party appraisal.
-if the rig is legit, baseline/preservice done, then it WILL pass for safety, and you really just need to go to a mechanic you know
- e-test is a breeze
- i had no dust whatsoever from shipping
- the only problem with MTO is that they initially couldn't register the shorter VIN, so the lady had to call "head office", a couple minutes later, i had my plates and a smile on my face. (then my ins. co. just wanted a pic of the vin/engine/model number for their records b/c they were leary about it not being in the MTO system)
- for ontarians, you just gotta make sure you have insurance for it, the rest is easy peasy regardless if it comes from out west or locally

what's more important is the history of the rig and what kind of baseline work has been done to bring it up to "as new" condition. cooling system, brakes, shocks, IP serviced, belts/filters, AC recharged, maybe new rubber...etc.. and the rest is anyone's calculated risk.

btw, ontario is not terrible! have some pride now! lol.

Nice comparison! Good job.
But we have different prices list for each model/trim/condition.
$11,900 is our highest price in the SWB model ( We have a NO HST sale now, though ).
RD ‘L400 in this post is a Low Roof but ours in your comarison is Super Exceed model as they are way different from the beginning, not to mention of services.
Anyway, RD’s price reflects their cost/effort for importing in hard business environment, etc.
Well deserved to get and I respect it.
