They will most likely tell you that you will have to get the "In-transit tag" from a notary (if this is a private sale). And I would also call the U.S. border crossing to see if you can just fax the paperwork 3 days ahead of time. I called the Champlain, NY border crossing and they want the actual Title and copy of the sales receipt. So I am having the dealer courier the documents to them. Plus they told me that they are not open on weekends. So I will bring the car across on our holiday Monday.
The price is right at this time. If the Canadian dollar keeps going up, your car keeps getting cheaper.
