Mid Life Crisis 355: Bargain or headache? Please help!

Post by wwwboard »

Posted by cwlondon

I am in the midst of a move from England back to the US after 7 years and have found a 1997 355 GTB in Europe for around $63,000 USD which sounds like a bargain. It has 27,000 kms and supposedly has had its cambelts just changed.  Having lived over here, does anyone know if I can ship it with my furniture and household items?  Or will I have to pay duties and taxes for a 1997 car that I bought one week before the movers arrived?  Does anyone know how much it would cost to import and convert?  And if I go to all this trouble, what will the resale value of a converted Euro 355 in the US market?  If anyone could help me, I would greatly appreciate a reply to my e-mail:  cwlondon@hotmail.com.  My girlfriend has just dumped me and I am trying to cheer myself up for the Summer.  Thank you very much!
