Prices have really gone up. I paid 1300 Euro from B-haven to B-more. I did work with an American Lamprect on the shipping and the port service. I never went to the port. They handled everything. I paid almost $1900 on the service, fees, and import duties duties to get it out of port. It was also well worth the cost to pay an agent in Germany (800 Euro) who looked it over, handled the purchase, paperwork, insurance, and transport to the port. Shipping by truck to Chicago cost more than the liner across the Atlantic.
For anyone thinking about it, now is the time to import a good Touring. They will be all scooped up very soon and I suspect that they will be quite expensive soon. Remember, there weren't that many to begin with (103,704 out of 2,344,341) and they were used constantly. I wonder how many lower km not rotten Tourings there are left in the world. My agent, Jens Richter, bought two more violet 93-94s after shipping mine to me. One had rust and missing Euroweaves and the other had 300k km and a worn interior. He sold them both in one day for nearly as much as I paid for my 70k km car with no issues at all.
By the end of August I will be tooling around Chicago and southern Wisconsin with my professionally installed m52b28 too!
