You have to also be careful for Corvettes. I believe the American Corvette bumper doesn't conform to Canadian Safety standards. This would be an expensive modification you would have to make after importing into Canada. Most other vehicles only need daytime running lights and a child safety harness installed in order to pass the required out-of-province inspection. Call the
RIV office before you import any vehicle to find out what mods need to be done before you purchase your vehicle (especially Corvettes).
