Ever exported a car from Mexico?

I am considering buying a car in Mexico.

The importation process is straightforward and I have inpirt d numerous vehicles from the US before.

What do I need to do to export a car from Mexico? To export fro the US you need to get a copy of the title to US customs 72 hours in advance so they can run the VIn to determine if it is stolen or if there are any liens.

What about Mexico?

I was looking at one from there a few years ago and unless you are exporting it in bond directly to Canada the vehicle has to be able to be imported into the USA first. This applies to land shipment of the vehicle. If you ship by sea (inside a container) then it is less of a problem. This is information I got from US Customs back then.

I've seen my fair share of tdi trucks in Tucson to think they just drive them across the border...

Seriously, you can't find the car you're looking for in the US or Canada? Unless it's something super specific or rare, I would avoid a Mexico purchase.

With everything going on in that country, I would be expecting a visit from a cartel guy with a Sawzall wanting to cut open the rocket panels as soon as it got here.
