Help !! Were to Buy ?

Hi Guys
I like to ask some inside information regarding were to buy accident Porsche's .
here is my problem , I live in Aruba and aim planning to buy a newer ( 05-09 ) Porsche 997 ,Boxster S or Cayman S next to my Classic ones unfortunately if i import a car to the Island they will Charge me 50 % import Duty so if i buy for example a 50000 Dollar Car i have to pay 25000 Dollar Tax over here plus the Shipping so aim planning to buy a salvaged car cheap and fix it over here with a Friend of mine what owns a body shop and worked on Porsche's in Germany.
Any insider Tips , Links to Company's what are in the Business will be very helpfully so I can start looking around to find the right car and avoid the ridiculously high Tax .

Thanks
Karsten

There are insurance auctions that sell them, but the easiest way to buy them is from individuals who sell locally here.

Check with the salvage OklahomForeign.com. They always have some wrecks. Don't seem to have what you are looking for at the moment. Call them?

Check Craigslist, do a Porsche search in different areas of the US, then you can get a better price. A crashed 99 Boxster sold locally for $2K not long ago through Craigs..

I'm looking for a newer car importing an old one is not a problem, as new as possible with damage so the price can be put down on the BOS and i get a lower import duty.
If i bring a non damaged car in for a to low price the local customs will check blue Book and you will be charged the BB price but with a damaged car there is no list to check on .
I did Craigslist already for some time but there are not so much salvaged cars on, but your are right lots of used P cars there
