One "gotcha" I found is apparently customer has to pay 19% VAT and sales price to his "arranger" USA dealer before taking euro delivery of the vehicle. When the vehicle comes to the USA, the arranger dealer gets customer reimbursed for VAT. How does this work in practice? How long does this reimbursement actually take? I see Audi has some strict time limits as to when these transfers and deliveries must occur.
Yeah, not sure if I want to "loan" them 6k :surprise: for the VAT...Im sure BMW,Volvo, Saab handle that in another manner. Perhaps that will be worked out as time goes on.

Wonder how it compares to Saab, BMW, et all?
