I am looking to import an 07 Shelby Gt. Has anyone done this since it was put on inadmissable list (indirectly) on Transport Canada's website. Is this car just considered a mustang when you import? Any help greatly appreciated. Deal has been made on car, but I did not look into this before i did that. Me dumb

Not sure about the details of importing to Canada, but if they only need to verify the VIN number, you should be fine. The VIN number comes through as a Mustang GT (not a Shelby since it was modified after production).
Hopefully a Canadian Team Shelby member can weigh in with more details to help you out.
Good luck!

Canada does not allow most Shelby's for some stupid reason.
Check out this thread. There are a lot of details on importing Shelby's to Canada towards the end of the thread. http://www.teamshelb...p...=33455&st=0
I would also PM QuickSilverShelby. He has spent a LOT of time on this issue. I believe he still has not been able to get his GT-H into Canada and it is currently in storage in Las Vegas.

Brought my 07 SGT into Canada when I moved up from Portland. VIN comes up as Mustang GT - so you'll be good.
HOWEVER, if you NOW go look at RIV Canada, they've now included the car into the "Admissible" list! along with other models.
