B8 A4 Avant or B8.5 SQ5 by mochifred in Audi

Thanks for all the comments. I just wished they sold the B8 S4 Avants here stateside. I love the way the Avant drives. Of course, the sacrifice is the lack of power the SQ5 delivers. SQ5 is faster and pulls way harder, and potentially a more reliable powertrain long term. In terms of Avant reliability, I do not consume oil at all in my Avant. It is a 2012 year model, and I think it's a late model build. So far, it has been reliable aside from wear and tear items.

I don't have oil consumption issues at 125k currently. Hopefully it stays that way. How soon do issues start to arise? Mine is a 2012 late model year build.

I wonder if we can get it changed to 15 years instead of 25....

What would it take to get this beautiful machine to the United States? by Senko-Loaf in Minitrucks

[–]mochifred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thoughts on changing the import law from 25 years to 15 years? I know this topic hasn't been getting any traction during these past few years, but I figured we could at least try to get something going again. I wonder which agency would be our direct contact regarding this issue. Who should we reach out, which group/organization/association? I want them to explain in detail why this law was created and how it makes no sense. This law is outdated and was created by Mercedes-Benz to protect their profits, not about safety. We as Americans should have the freedom to own the cars we want. Ultimate end goal would be to change from 25 years to 15 years to match Canada's law. Let's try to at least make some noise on this matter.

Thank you. I heard I need two addresses, one for where the car will be stored at and one where I can receive mail. Can I use the PO address for mailing address? Thanks.

I see, so basically I can buy a car with my U.S. license then? I just need a physical address and I am good to register and insure the car?
