import 2010 tl to canada from states
Hi buys this is my first post. I am really interested in buying a new tl as my lease on the honda accord is coming to an end.
my question is that, riv states that i can import the car without duties but there is a problem with EIS. (inmobilizer system). Is that any easy fix or install to the car so that i wont have certification problems. I mean there is a mere 10000 difference between the fully loaded tl's from canada to us. If someone has done it recently can you please pm me or share you experiance kindly.

I am also in the same situation, I am looking to import a pre-owned 2010 TL 6mt.
Although there are current rebates in Canada there are also similar rebates in the USA. If you compare actual purchase prices then darshan's statement about the 10,000 difference is correct.
I was under the impression that warranty is void on a new vehicle but you still retained your USA warranty if you buy used. However when I called Acura they stated the warranty is void regardless.

darshan, I did not think that the EIS is a problem for the 4G TL? There is an EIS already installed in the US model. Where did you get that information from?
CraigMacDTA, what other modifications are required to bring a US 4G TL into Canada?

ostrich => I got the information for the registar of vehicles webiste for canada. you can follow the link: http://www.tc.gc.ca/roadsafety/SafeV...DA___ACURA.htm
The explain more by what they mean by [EIS].. in this link: http://www.tc.gc.ca/roadsafety/safev...planations.htm
Thanks for all your opinions guys. If i had the extra money to spare for the obivous difference for the same model, I woundn't have asked for you help. But becuase I am trying to save my self money .. even $2000 then I guess I have to do it in this economy. What say?
Thanks again guys,

The RIV site also states that if you get the car inspected on arrival, it may be OK. So I don't think that it's as big an issue as one might think.
You may also want to contact Acura to see if the EIS is compliant with the Canadian regulations. I have a special interest in this too, that's why I have been looking into these situations myself.
Good luck!
