    Be careful importing a car from the USA into Canada, especially newer ones. On Pelican Parts Canada forum there is a thread on how to import:

    bla bla bla about the weather

    Definitely winter here - been below -25 for weeks It's actually not that bad, except not being able to drive the 911 for fear of getting it side swiped by someone with zero snow driving ability!

    I drive my Cayman S all winter, but no snow or salt shall ever touch my 911S. Even though it is all galvanized and well primered. Resist the urge !

    Now that your car has been cryogenically treated @ -50C for a week or two, let me say hello and welcome to Winnipeg. Not much happens car wise until the roads are clear of snow and we have had a good rain or two to wash the salt and gravel away. Here's a link to a umbrella organization of car clubs. http://www.maac.cc/ In there you will find a list of almost every car club in Manitoba and links to their various web sites.
