Importing car from US to Canada, any companies to do it?

Hello,

I figured since some of you have imported previous generation Evolutions from the States, perhaps some owners might know a bit on what I am trying to find out.

I am looking to see if there are any local businesses in Toronto which can help me import a car from the US to Canada. I've done some research before and know that there are some paperwork etc to arrange at the border, as well as getting the car transported across the border etc.

Now i want to know if there are companies which I can pay a fee (and if so, approximately how much?) to take care of this process for me. And if anyone has tried, would you say its worthwhile?

I'd appreciate all the info I can get, thanks!

I'd love to do it myself, but I just dont have the time and I can nearly feel like something is bound to go wrong if I attempt this feat myself. Much rather have the car safely arriving in Toronto, even if it costs me a little more.
